I’m a mechanic and I love Subaru’s. Japanese cars in the 90’s is the equivalent of the 60’s and 70’s American muscle. Really good automotive engineers building and designing amazing cars. The celebrity status of automotive engineers it’s a thing of the past. I feel almost all car companies have gone downhill over the past 10 years. Just poor engineering, cheap materials and dealer only services. But maybe I’m just old a jaded.

@focus3303 6 лет назад

I owned it for 5yrs. At the time I owned it I was living in Ibiza, so I had to change the number plate to Spanish which was a challenge. A collector from Vigo bought it from me as I moved back to the UK. It's 279/400. It was on Jeremy Clarkson head to head video and the reason he test drove it was because it was one of the first imported into the UK at that time.

@SmellyStains 5 лет назад

This car was on display in the showroom at Suttons Subaru in Rosebery Sydney in January 2018. It had one of those spec sheets next to the car which detailed all its goodies If I remember correctly, it also showed its 1999 RRP of around $120k. Unfortunately it was so tightly packed in with a bunch of other cars it was almost impossible to get good photos of the car. There was also a mint condition Brumby in red behind the 22b Thanks for the video. The best Aussie 22b video I have seen.

Little storage compartment @8:05 are common In Imprezas which I used for loose change. But why say fuse? The fuse board is located behind it, and by pinching the sides of the open compartment will release and drop out, so basically it’s a fuse box cover.

@DaveZalstein 5 лет назад

Hey Schorschix, So, 1. As far as I know, the 1998 Type RAs came standard from the factory with plain black items. Type Rs may have used body-coloured items, so apologies if I misled you there. 2. I didn't say the STI tip was exclusive to the 22B, just that standard WRXs of the time came standard with twin-tip systems, which they did. 3. To the best of my knowledge, VTD (Variable Torque Distribution) was the system that effectively preceded DCCD (Driver Controlled Center Differential or Driver's Control Center Differential). The name DCCD came later and was used in proceeding models. Glad you liked the video overall though, and cheers for the questions.

@@DaveZalstein Classic I love it! Unfortunately I'm counting both of our assets to be a millionaire plus I'd be broke after a divorce lol... My broker said to wait 3 more years until they are fully legal in the US then make my move lol... Thanks for the funny comment tho!

@@07BLUESTI Three more years, yikes, not sure you'll even find one by then, plus they'll be PRICEY! My tip, get one now before they're all gone and just hide it in the shed for a bit ;-)

Japan's ferrari is the nsx

@DaveZalstein 4 года назад

Disagree. Again, the F40 was a moment-in-time car. It was produced one time, with one goal - to be the best the brand could do, no exceptions. The NSX simply wasn't a one-off, there were loads of on-going versions and special editions and even a second-generation car. Totally different to the story of the 22B. Sorry but it's true.

I would commit crime for a 22B

Let's not do that haha, just watch the vid lots and share it around instead... Take care mate :D

i wouldn't call this a japanese's F40. the first gen nsx = japane's F40 even tho this car could be "little bit" cooler than any nsx's only collectible subaru ever right here

@DaveZalstein 4 года назад

A 22B is totally cooler than an NSX, no contest! But again, I think people are missing the point of what I mean by 'Japan's F40'. The F40 was a moment-in-time car. It was produced one time, with one goal - to be the best the brand could do, no exceptions. The NSX simply wasn't a one-off, there were loads of on-going versions and special editions and even a second-generation car. Totally different to the story of the 22B.

Faster than F40

@DaveZalstein 3 года назад

Perhaps not, but I certainly wouldn't take an F40 on gravel... :D

@sleeper.simulant7327 4 года назад

The “rumble” is artificially created by a inefficient header design, you can literally make a Honda sound like that if you want to... with EL headers a boxer still sounds slightly different from a inline 4, but it doesn’t have the obnoxious “rumble” that you hear from riced out straight piped WRX’s...

@DaveZalstein 4 года назад

Oh c'mon man, "obnoxious rumble” is my favourite kind of rumble... :-P
