If you guys really dont think Subaru's are known for their headgaskets you're dumbasses. Yes the 2.5's are more known, but all Subaru's are known for it.

And yes WRX transmissions are known to be glass transmissions. Aka why most fanbois go for the 6 speed swap.

And yes it takes ~10g's just to get 400whp on top of the cost of the vehicle. Its funny when kids tear apart the motors and rebuild them up, just to get like 380-420whp.


yea cus me owning an STi for 3 years makes me a dumbass. People that just repeat what others say online are idiots.

OP is talking about WRX's. I'm talking about WRX's. The HG thing just goes for all. And if you really disagree with anything I've said you truly arent a Subaru enthusiast like you think you are.

The HG issue is for most Subaru's, more importantly the 2.5L.

Idk shit about the newer Subaru's. In my head I was picturing bugeyes, blobeyes, hawkeyes, etc. The RS and the Forester's were the worst IMO.

never heard any issues with headgaskets. And just because i owned an STi doesn't mean i dont know about wrxs. The only thing you got right was the glass trannys and those were only a real issue in the bug eyes

not unless i forgot. Only thing i can remember are the rs with headgasket issues. nothing with turbos. But i do know everyone i met with a wrx or sti never did either. Only main issues that comes up are oil pickup tubes for some models, and ringlands from running to lean on factory maps
