Добавлен 31 дек 2016
I made this channel to document the upgrades and performance of my 2017 WRX. I also enjoy snowboarding as one of my favorite hobbies and wanted to share some of my trips.
I purchased my WRX in October 2016 and have been documenting the modifications I have made. I really enjoy the vehicle and it has been a awesome experience to drive and meet fellow owners with the same passion. I created this channel to also show others the cars in action and how to do the same modifications if they wish.
I am always open for business inquires and sponsorship.

2017 WRX Boomba Bypass Valve Repair
I first off wanted to state that your Boomba BPV should not need any repair. Mine gave out after constant use of 6 years. Unless you are in the same boat as me you should never have to worry about maintaining the BPV. This video is to show the internals as well as how to replace the seals and re-grease the components.

Before anything else I wanted to thank @ronfromportland for the replacement info and tips along with Andrew with the 2020 turbo donor. This was one of my hardest installs to date.

Re-installing the headers alone took me close to 2 hours because the bolts were not linin...

2017 WRX - Transmission & Differential Fluid Change (With Issue)

I was able to change out my transmission fluid but ran into an issue when I moved to the differential. The fill and drain bolt were both seized. After a week of pb blaster and attempts, I was finally able to remove the fill bolt. Instead of continuing to work on the drain bolt, I siphoned out the oil from the fill hole using a vacuum pump. It did make me feel confident in knowing that the drain...

Glad to see the uploads flowing! Looks fun out there.
@SubieShakedown oh yeah. It was a great time. Hope you've been doing good man.
Now I feel more confident installing mines . Thank you
@gnb1816 no problem. The hoses are a little stiff to maneuver but nothing too hard to do.
Keep up the videos brother! They're a big help
@@subiseth thanks a lot man
that actually not bad to reseal the bypass valve
@itsjohnnypanda2448 not at all. With it only being o-rings instead of sealant it's very straightforward
@@WRXSNOWBOARDER it be a good kits to have to rebuild or refresh our bypass valve due to age and usage
@@itsjohnnypanda2448 yeah I agree
First! Good work my friend
Thanks a lot. We had an amazing weekend and a really fun time.
Glad you got it all sorted out man, always happy to help. My heart definitely sank when I saw my fins chipped up like that.
Yeah. I was super bummed out when I noticed that this was the issue. Thankfully it's all swapped out now and going strong.
Very interesting video. Where did you get the 17+ Grimspeed turbo inlet finally?
My local tune shop. They might have another in stock. It's called Kozmic Motorsports if you want to give them a call and ask.
@@WRXSNOWBOARDER Thanks bro
Long bolt is to draw the pieces together. Shorter bolt is the permanent bolt that you blue lock tight in after you’ve used the long bolt to pull the pieces together.
Where you get your foglights from?
They are the morimoto xb. they are expensive but look very nice. I've put clear ppf over them every since they came out the box and 6 years later they still look brand new.
Honeslty dont see much difference 🤷♂️
I think seeing it in person is much different than the video. The cars stance looked a whole lot more aggressive than seeing the wheels tucked in the fenders
( 8:38 ) that small white plastic piece I slightly broke mine , where can I get a new one of those? I’m struggling to find one. ☝️
www.pastcurfewracing.com/ They replace the plastic with brass.
Thanks
Looks and sounds amazing 🇮🇹👌🏻
Thanks very much
From what you describe I might have the same issue.
It could be but that was from narrowing it down by checking all the other parts.

No problem man
omg you are a genius. Awesome video! Well explained, short and sweet! Many thanks!!!!
Glad to help.
Hi bro. this is Onur from Turkey. i have 2017 ghibli and engine light is like yours not closing. why? do you have any idea about this.? thanks lot.
My engine light would turn off when I started the car. If you are seeing the wrench light then you will need the obd tool to reset it. If the engine light stays on when driving then you will need to get the car scanned to see what code it is giving.
just did this to mine. How wrapped hold up? did oit get damaged because of heat?
After about a year and a half it started to pull up but it wasn't very noticeable. If it was all clean when you installed the wrap I'd say around 2 years.
Wish I had a sunroof 😂😂😂
You still have the spacer I have Maserati ghibli 2015 same color of yours let me know ! If you have and how $$$ thank you great job you did bravo..
Thank you. I appreciate it. I have sold the spacers but they are definitely a great investment if you are looking at them. I would suggest ebay as the sellers has all the different sizes to fit how you want the "stance" to look.
i am 4 months shy of 3 years owning these same compressors. I have the SMC check valves and before I would just clean them and they worked fine. My issue started with the second compressor popping fuses. I drove about a day on the main compressor. It would take about 15 minutes for the one main compressor to fill a 4 gal tank. So i cleaned the SMC check valve for the main compressor now it's popping too. Doing the exact thing yours was doing. shuts off whenever the compressor tries to fill the tank. The compressor test was sucking so much air I didn't even need soap to determine a leak. This is AFTER I removed both SMC check valves , cleaned them and reinstalled. I also noticed my tank pressure is dropping to 0 within minutes. Tested all fittings and no leaks except at the both of the compressors filter holes. Cleaning SMC check valves ( which always solved the problem ) didn't solve it this time and the 40 amp fuses did nothing. Still popping them. At almost 3 years it might be time i replace the compressors. They seem to take longer to fill the tank , sound a little funny, leaking at the filter ports and popping fuses.
Yeah sounds like the compressors themselves are wearing out. With the leak, if definitely sounds to me like the check valve is failing to hold the back pressure.
@WRXSNOWBOARDER that's exactly my thoughts, too, regarding the check valves failing to hold back pressure. However, I have the SMC check valves. The kind that can be disassembled. I took them apart, cleaned them, greased them, and they move freely, just like new. I even swapped them during testing to see if the problem would swap to other compressor in case it was a faulty CV. Same severe leak with main compressor using a different check valve. Called airlift support. He could only narrow it down to 3 things. Electrical wiring, check valve, or compressor. He ruled out the check valve once I told him I had the heavy-duty SMC's. He says that despite the fact that using them voids the viair warranty, he swore by them. Wiring is good, and it wouldn't explain the severe leak from the main compressor, which is when this all started. I just purchased two new 444C compressors. Should be here later today.
Here's a video of the SMC check valves I'm using and its cleaning process. Simple 2 piece internal design. A spring and a plastic part. Fool proof. When they sieze, you'll know it during disassembly. The plastic piece inside is either stuck in place from accumulated gunk or it has little leverage. You can actually see it in the video when he starts that he had to push the plastic piece out. Once you clean off the gunk, which is a simple wipe down , the spring and plastic piece move freely. ruclips.net/video/ontoZ6qcqsY/видео.htmlsi=Kzmwu7E4UD5x5nE4
@@blkeclipsel2400 thanks for the video. I'm sure the new compressors will fix the issue. You'll be surprised how much quieter they sound too compared to your current ones. I agree that has to be the issue.
Hey, WRX SNOWBOARDER!, I'm curious - are you still using the Perrin Spherical Bearings Rear Endlinks? I'm wondering about their long-term maintenance and if they've developed any noise issues over the five years you've had them?
Yes I'm still using them and no I haven't had any issues. Every year I re-grease my sway bar bushings and at that time I just use some silicon spray on the endlinks. I haven't heard then squeak either. They have turned a brown color but no rust.
Thanks for the video. I got the tinted ones because of glare at night. Hope my install goes as easy
Awesome. Yeah just take your time lining it all up.
Thanks for the video - appreciate it. After installing a new disc, which is presumably thicker, did you have to recalibrate the EPB at all? Or have any issues getting the pads back in? Doing this job Saturday 😊
No I didn't have to recalibrate the epb. The pads went right back on but you do have to use your hand to push the pistons back some.
Thanks very much for the info, and for such a quick reply. Grateful for the insight 😊
'18 Forester with WRX front lower control arm swap. The Kartboys are a perfect fit. Had stock Subaru endlinks but the ball joint was an extreme angle and basically failed. The difference between stock and kartboys was night and day. Quick and responsive turn in and I feel the sway bar actually works. Ultimately you want to go with end linka that suit your ride. Looks like your WRX has a lower ride height?
Yeah it rides a little lower plus with the air suspension it would make a click when raising or lowering with the kartboy. It sounds like you have a solid setup now.
Do you have to buy fuses to connect it to the fuse box?
It comes with what's called an add a fuse. Its basically a double fuse that connects into one slot. You don't need to buy anything extra
I couldn’t get mine to stick… what is the best kind of tape to use? I’ve tried other foam 3m tapes but didn’t work.
This is the tape I use for all my projects 3M Super-Strength Molding Tape, 03614, 1/2 in x 15 ft, 1 Roll a.co/d/5FZfyPg
Great video and great explanation. Question, I had a read about I need to replace the 4th cylinder ignition coil. I just got the part but, how do I know, which one is the 4th? Thank you in advanced… 2016 Maserati Quattroporte SQ4
All the ignition coils should have a number on them. I believe no4 is the driver top. (Top right if looking from the front of the car)
Great. I found the small labels at the end of the cables, a little faded but I could see it and just replaced the part. Thank you so much… 💯
@@pjblest awesome. Glad you help
Thanks for the video. I’m looking to put these on my 2020 chevy blazer rs. AFD won’t get back to me with winglet dimensions. Can you post a dimensions video or we can DM from another platform.
Yeah message me on instagram at wrx_snowboarder and I'll send them to you.
Thanks! Will do.
Aluminum ones just need a little layer of anti seize. 0 trouble after that. Plastic ones don't have as high of a tolerance.
is there a link for these i want to buy them
This looks like the cheapest website. shop.redline360.com/products/spec-d-tail-lights-subaru-wrx-sti-sequential-led-2015-2019-black-smoked-red?currency=USD&variant=31258566033488&Google%20Shopping&stkn=891961585efe&gad_source=1&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIo6vzyprJgwMVrFN_AB2ghQhIEAQYCyABEgL6OfD_BwE
How to retract the epb?
If it comes on automatically just use the switch to make the epb retract. If you're asking about removing it from the hub assembly then this video is just the work around for not having to do that.
Good tips bud! Thank you!
No problem
Turn off the music pls
Do u have a jpipe on it when recorded?
No it's just the cat back.
Do you still have it set at out of the box height today? Also what PSI is your ride height at? Very curious before I purchase.
I do still have it as out of the box height. Riding I have 52psi front and 63 psi rear. I have the high set at 74psi and 84psi rear for a quick lift for angles and speed bumps. I did have to roll my fenders and add -2.5 camber all around. Wheels 9.5x18 +38 tires 255/35r18
@@WRXSNOWBOARDER thank you so much for the detailed explanation!
still curious if you drove the car onto the 4 ramps or just drove it on to 2 ramps, then used a jack to lift the other two wheels (rear) high enough to slide ramps under the tires...I know having the car level during this process is important.
I actually just jacked up the front then slid the ramps underneath. Then used the jacks to lift and lever the rear. Then just put jack stands all around for safety. The car is actually too low to drive up the ramps I have.
@@WRXSNOWBOARDER ... thx. doing 1st front diff fluid change now (60k mi) and have 2 ramps. I would need to stack 3x 2x8s to get the rear to the same height (or w/in a half inch). my Rhino ramps = 6.5" lift
Isn’t the bottom bolt on the rear differential a mag plug? I would think you would want to remove it and check the mag plug like you did with the trans drain bolt.
That's true it's a mag bolt. I haven't noticed anything that would cause any concern so I didn't mind not checking it.
where did u buy this item?
It was originally from burnzauto but I got it from Facebook marketplace
I was told that the front dome factory LED lights can be replaced. Just have to use a soldering tool to be able to attach the white LED to the circuit board.
Yes. From what I've seen that's the only way as well
Can you create a tutorial video on how to change the color of car lights? I previously changed my lights to white, but my parents didn't like it, so I switched them back to yellow. It would be great if you could help me install a puddle light under the mirror. I've tried opening everything up, but I can't seem to wire it properly.
Motul is the Subaru godsend
Use anti seize on both back bolts and the front one. They will come off like butter
Mine is hard to go on first gear and I have to rev it 2000 rpm and I can feel it the mounts moving and noise lol
Have you checked your shift guide rail. It may not allow enough play to move into 1st. This mount shouldn't be causing an issue.
@@WRXSNOWBOARDER I’m going to check it tomorrow morning and also when I’m on first gear and try to drive it it’s hard to accelerate and shaking like noise I just replace clucth and tob 3 months ago it just happen yesterday when I get home from work
@kevzallmotor973 also the torque spec is 58ft/lbs. Some people have done 80 but tightening with an impact would be too much.
@@WRXSNOWBOARDER well I just follow the instructions on it so now I have to play gas pedal around 2000 rpm On first gear lol
I installed it on my 21 wrx from the top without loosening up the 2 bolts. Its a pain to install cos i had the cusco master cylinder brace on the way but it was still doable. I would have saved a lot of time if it wasnt there but i was too lazy to take it off cos that one was also a PIA to install. Make sure u have extensions for the allen.
Sick bumper
Thanks a lot
Do cargo boxes decrease MPG?
If there isn't heavy wind then it's the same, but even with a lot of wind it's very minimal. It's designed for air to go around it. If you had a square box one it would cause drag.
Increible, esto le encanta a mi pochi🤭
Would this same hood fit on 2017 sti?
Yes it would.
@@WRXSNOWBOARDER ok i was wondering it would be same caz i got the 2017 wrx carbon fiber hood for better deal lol
@evoxxxbih8386 yes the body is the same. It's just what's under the hood that's different
Did u drill holes for the 2bottom screws for the license plate?
Yes I did. I used 2 self tapping screws.
I wish I could find one with wider cups... I aint got a spot for my Yeti! Really digging the shift/ebrake boots.
Thanks a lot. I like the boots a lot. Much better than the fake leather
A stock maserati is everything that needs done to it. Nothing lol
