Why No One Has Built a Subaru Forester STi Like This. (Next Level Insanity) 

We have 3 EJ20 Key Tags left in stock!! Grab the last of them, not sure when we'll re-stock. roadsuntraveled.com/en-ca/collections/jet-tags/products/ej20-engine-code-jet-tag

Sick forester, but guys.... We've been building these foresters in Australia for the last 20 years... late to the party but glad you made it :P

Man a Forester STi has been my dream ride for a loooong time and it sucks it will never happen haha.

heck yeah!!! this is amazing thanks dude!

I talked w/ Chris at Big Northwest in Washington in August. Car is incredible to see in person, the carbon is just gorgeous. Super nice guy too

I've been following his build for a while now on IG, It's amazing to see it be reviewed on RU-vid!

Saw this car on subaru summer meet in Vancouver, this is the star of the whole meet, definitely the best build on that day!

The attention to detail that was put into this car, inside and out is so amazing.

It's cool..dont know about "no one has done"...ive one sitting in my driveway lol 06 RA sti I appreciate it and love to see not many feature these

My first Subie ever was an ‘01 Forester L, which I fixed its motor after the infamous H/G leak. I did everything on that car from regular maintenance to all sort of suspension work and learned a lot and always enjoyed the awesome AWD. Needless to say, I just fell in love with the brand. I come from the 90s Honda scene and had everything from a Civic Si to a beautiful S2K. But after owning Subies, I’m now on my 3rd Subie and haven’t looked back. This SF5 STi M is simply awesome! Thanks for sharing.

I like the 3d printed bezel for the airlift controller. I'm working on doing the same thing in my 94 legacy

I have a 2000 subaru forester turbo, it has been my favorite to car to drive! it's extremely fun in the snowy parts of Japan

Been following him for awhile. Love this build. 😊 also wanted to add @9:05, all foresters through 2008 had pillarless doors not just first gens.

Chris is such a cool guy, he is always the star on Subaru meeting!

I saw a same gen Forester (GT model) on my way home from work today, it was lowered with pink wheels.

Yeah been following him on Instagram ever since I got my own FSTI. Allot of work put in this build 👏 But you should also drive the newer SG STI which is now elegible to be imported in Canada.

Mad fozzy! Practical yet looks phenomenal ❤️🔥

Thought about it 20yrs ago because it had one of the best body style... i didnt have the means!!

I have one with gold rims 57000km 3" with 91 octane tune from project lambda tune. Awesome car!

In the PNW (WA) Subaru has a factory. They are the Honda Civic equivalent. A dime a dozen. I like this Subaru. Customized. As all cars should be. Expression.❤

got to see this car in person last year 👌🏻 beautiful subaru

Awesome video. Love the fozz

I had the ej 22 normal, it was fun, i have an opportunity to grab a wagon manual 2.2 I might go for it

HaHa I bought my SH Forester in 2019 as a daily while I was replacing my engine in my WRX. My WRX is still in garage and my Forester is lowered on coilovers, 25mm rear sway bar, adjustable lca's and lateral bars. Stronger font and rear endlinks and 18x9 1/2 wheels with 245/40 tires. It handles so well I had to put a well bolstered drivers seat in it. Next is STI full drivetrain minus engine. Maybe one day I will get back to the WRX.

Love the SF5 manual extremely rare nearly all automatic i had a 2001 uk s turbo sf5 manual here in Scotland lost it too rust rear subframe snapped off almost half and it rotted in usuall rear suspension turrets i sold it and its had thousands spent its on road with prodrive exaust and wrx subframe

Love seeing more Forester content on the youtubess

Down here in St . Lucia in the Caribbean we have people who have builds like that for it

I love my '04 Forester XT! It's an auto, but since the auto is actually stronger than the 5 speed glass box I'm fine with that.

awesome content! on the Forester STi

I miss my 2000 gt the good old ej20 sound

I love everything about this car. I'd say my only dislike would be how low it is to the ground. I'd definitely raise it if it were me. Just a personal preference though. Other then that, absolutely gorgeous car. I wish I could do something like this with my subaru outback. Lol

Had an s-turbo also. Best car I ever had.

Now thats what you call a beast wagon wow

Sick! I always give a rev for the fan boys aswell!

i have an 09 SH forester XT with a near full sti swap, runs at about 400 wheel on 25lbs of boost:)

Forester Culture Representing 😎

Chris, this is masterpiece, i love ideas implemented here. I have the same fenderist kit, aby idea how to fit rims with that big ET?

saw it in person when he went to winnipeg last month

Are all of the Impreza Platform steering racks bolt on to the Forester? Could I pretty easily put an STI rack into my ‘98 Forester?

I'm currently building my genuine sti forester. Would be sick to make it look similar to this one day

8:15 Love it !

Dont quote me on this but the model 08 -11 has a more bulletproof engine. We had a couple people push the stock block to over 400Hp (in NZ) and I think also in Australia. Very similar to the 04 model just with more comfort etc. I never had one personally, I had a 04 TbSTi Legacy and 05 ST, although 2 of my brothers have had a few foresters and still do and theyre nice to drive.

Hey men where you get that gauge pod to replace the glovebox?

Cool build, the moulding on the fenders is bit rough though.

That carbon hood 🥹🥹😍😍

The one for the front blow is from bugeyes prodrive?

I feel like they should have made a manual STI Exiga. Just because

Lord have mercy that’s beautiful

whered you buy that sti hood scoop from??

Plush Nos neck rest, I dig.

See ive seen some of these amazing forest builds and i want to get one cuz the i loved the wagon style impreza but getting one where i live in good conditions yeah nah good luck

A budget accessory based fozzy is found in most Cities lol

I`m not from russia. I`m from Ukraine:) (designer of this bodykit)

regards from Ej20 - BG 😊 Very impessive Fozz

for the rack you can all ways do the 2015+ rack mod

Sf is hands down my favorite Subaru. I’d take an na auto sf fozz over wrx any day

Probably a long shot, but do you have any info on the dragon boat team in the B-roll shot at 0:59?

By stock ecu, do you mean the fozzy ecu or the stock 207 ecu?

Hi! If you have the budget to come to the UK for a few days, ur welcome to come and have a go & film in mine... i got the Fozzi 2.5 STI Litchfield tuned 330bhp that goes like a rocket...

Come to Australia or NZ.. plenti Fori at this level an more haha :D Sick build though

Torque Steer on AWD Holy S*** ! 🤯

Whats the wide body kit on this?

"its all ball bearings nowadays"

love these wheels 🔥🔥🔥 great video.

what wheel do you put on

Car is incredible 🔥

What rims/wheels are those?

what overfenders are on this thing? Is it all burn up?

Anyone know what rims are these ?

I love the tails on the facelift gt, sadly I’ve got the first gen gt with the ugly tails

Short answer why: money and time Long answer why: also time and money

Have you driven a 20 or newer Outback Xt turbo ? When you speak of Subaru losing there direction , many of the people saying this haven’t driven a new Subaru

wow!!!! very beautiful!!!

Love it!!

Also sold in Australia

That's just nasty! Great job

Not really my thing, but that's very cool.

lovely car bud, shame she's not the STI 2 Type M though!

I live in Vancouver and would love to know where this road is.

I am Liking the rim set ,what is the name and model ?

I’m own a ‘17 STI, FBO and e85, and I think I have PTSD from all the issues I’ve had with it in just 8 months of ownership. Now every time I watch a video about a modded Subie, my brain starts yelling, “ROD KNOCK, HEAD GASKETS, TIMING BELT, OIL CONSUMPTION, CYLINDER 4 MISFIRE, DAM DROP, FALSE KNOCK IS REAL KNOCK” and I get the urge to write the owner of the car in the video to warn them to sell their Subaru while they still have their sanity (and short block) intact. On a completely unrelated note, does anyone want to buy a nice clean 2017 WRX STI? It’s bone stock and only used for picking up my Grandma from her weekly Bingo tournament. I love the car and it’s been SUPER reliable. Only reason I’m downgrading to a Golf R is for the extra cargo space to fit my Grandma’s wheelchair. 🤞😇

Nice foz

What rain deflectors r those

Not enough "fans" to justify bringing the Forester STI. A simple 04-08 FXT build with the STi DCCD 6spd drivline into a Forester would blow the doors off the JDM SG5 Forester STI. No top end because the small turbos Subaru chooses to run. That VF28 is SO SMALL. The VF39/43/48 are small turbos too. They don't give you the greatest powerband. Throw in a 62MM turbo and it'll give you top end on both 2L & 2.5L.

What are those wheels I need them in my life

Torque steer my ass, that would be the wide tyres tracking

mixed feeling on this. Some nice thing, some ricer things...

Yooooooi drive a na 01 sf with 217k miles 5sp:)

What engine is in this

What wheels are those?

It's sooo pretty 😢.

sorry to burst your bubble but plenty of people have slammed and air bagged fozzy's LONG before you came along lol.

When is someone going to build a proper offroad Forester or Crosstrek.

maybe a canadian has never done a build like that

Cause not everyone has the cash to blow on fun

初代　フォレスター　typeM　５MT　ですか？

No one in this country ?

I mean I got one.

😍😍😍💥

I’m gonna put this out here. The reason the United States does not get any of the cool cars is because we would not of bought it. Subaru made the Legacy Spec B and they did not sell well. We only want them now because we can’t have them.
