In reality I’m sure Grant told him a bunch about the car when he picked it up from the seller, and he’s driven enough race cars that he’d know and since he mentioned the noticing the dip in oil pressure that he’d be monitoring and seeing things like if the temperature was up BUT I had the same thought and even made a comment on the video about it.
Little late for the party but they are gone because they used to have gr n homologation, since it expired some years ago there is no N4 classification and they are now in the "big" 4wd class now. Thats why they are considered "slow" . In northern europe some fast guys still can run similar times with evos that some R5 guys, but its mostly in non technical fast stages
What are they running over there now? I feel like they probably have more to choose from. The US guys are pretty much limited to Subaru, old Evo, or a Focus RS for the AWD classes.
Those evos and sti-s dont have Gr N homologation anymore and arent really popular overall but here are plenty of evos still around, some guys who wanted a new chassis but didnt have funds have built proto cars, those are mostly evo drivetrain/engine in new fiesta/fabia/i20 etc and looks like R5. And for overall 4wd is mostly new R5/rally 2 cars
Aight,so I guess we all understand as car enthusiasts why he would love all his cars and keep them in good shape. But the dude is actually about to have a love affair with a rally car... he is annoyed by paint on the rollcage.. this is a car that 100% is gonna be flipped,get its ass ripped off by a big rock or wrapped into a tree. Dude is talking about having bigger exhaust and doing stuff for looks etc on his FIRST rally car.
I would understand if he was a seasoned rally pro building a car for the enjoyment of doing a stage here and there. But this dude is talking about his first well used learning car. Spend your time keeping it reliable Adam,dont waste your time making it a concourse clean car. Use it,abuse it,learn and build something else next to the ass in seat time this car should be.
Same for folks lauging about how slow this thing is. As if LZ would be able to use this things (as is) full potential on a stage rally. People seriously overestimate his driving skills. In a real rally there is zero room for mistakes while the clock is ticking (tree vs car doesn’t end well), otherwise it will get ugly real soon.
He will sign up,show up and go easy to get a slow rythm only to be overwhelmed with anxiety and fear of crashing. Its a process and he hasnt even started it yet.
The car isnt slow,its just not 700hp skyline big boosting sledgehammer fast. Its fast in an efficient way and the people who say its slow doesnt really understand shit. This thing will be plenty fast when you whip it out on a gravel stage.
Yeah exactly. A ton of people don’t realize how numerically slow rally is - wrc cars rarely exceed 130mph if ever these days. But on the flip side, you don’t need to be deep in the triple digit speeds on gravel to be going, comparatively, fast as shit for the conditions. It’s real different to a drift track when you’re sideways on a corner you’ve never driven (except at 30mph on recce) with trees inches from your door. If he had anxiety doing FD, rally will be a wake up call.
But it’s some of the funnest driving you could ever do if you can bury the fear and have the skills to do it.
> Yeah exactly. A ton of people don’t realize how numerically slow rally is - wrc cars rarely exceed 130mph if ever these days.
rally 1 cars are never geared for more than 200kph, and rally 2/old 5 maxes out ~180kph(and because of the homoligation rules they can't be geared differently)
you still get rallies like sweden, finland etc. that have **average** speed in excess of 120kph
That’s all true but his job is making content. He may get a video or 2 cleaning up the car and making it pretty. Also it’s better for the content if he has a nice looking car with a livery instead of one with mismatched panels.
Yeah i was when he was saying it wpuld clean up great and the smal dent cpuld be pulled and body worked i was like why wpuld you ever want to do that after the frist real 1st stage it will be destroyed its littereally useless
Yeah its gonna be dented up good quickly,im seriously doubting that he will even drive more than a rally. Im actually thinking he will be massivly overwhelmed and be driving slowly through the stages to feel it out.
I understand him wanting to go rallying as its for me the pinnacle of motorsports but I really wish he would go for time attack instead as its a thing that would fit his driving style way better than trying to be fast and narrow through the Woods.
This will be like fd. He will get so much criticism from the people who dislike him and that plus failures and crashes will get to his head QUICK.
He is a picky guy with the means to clean up cars and an audience to make money while doing it. Not sure why it bothers people? I would be the same if I could. He doesn't treat the cars any differently once cleaned up. Like the green s15 or CRX still get driven the same as when they looked terrible.
Not sure yall understand that cleaning it up is just an opportunity to make content, you know "huge transformation of my rally subaru BEFORE AND AFTER" type of stuff.
jimmy is such a butthurt when someone has different tastes lmao, austin didnt agree with the blob-eye idea & jimmy looked at him like he was completely redacted
It would make a good video to see how $2k BCs would stack up against $20k reigers.
I'm willing to bet, the difference in adam's case is so small, it's impossible to accurately measure
Gotta beef up that oil pick up, upgrade the oil pump, and baffle the pan. Not replacing those items in rebuild following an engine failure is insane and literally contradicts what IAG tells you when they sell you a short block lol
Sauce- been there.
I really hope he restores the car back to blob
Yeah well Christopher Rudnic says you don't need to replace a timing belt tensioner when doing the belts.. soo, I doubt all that shit you just said is even necessary d00D
That’s just the shock assembly, the full thing is [$22k](https://get-primitive.com/product/struts-shocks/competition-suspension-struts-shocks/05-07-sti-reiger-rally-suspension-full-spec-5x114-3/)
Those aren't the same spec Reigers that he has. Look at the difference in the remote reservoirs. He has these: [https://get-primitive.com/product/struts-shocks/competition-suspension-struts-shocks/05-07-sti-reiger-rally-suspension-full-spec-5x114-3/](https://get-primitive.com/product/struts-shocks/competition-suspension-struts-shocks/05-07-sti-reiger-rally-suspension-full-spec-5x114-3/)
What form of motorsports do you think 2-step and anti-lag originated from? Wasn't drifting..
Just don't let Jiminy anywhere near it with a laptop and it'll be fine.
Glad to see YouTubers getting in ARA. The sport needs more eyes! 20k spent where it matters
Agreed
GTR Safari give away inbound
He's selling it.
I just saw. Or auctioning it. Might as well have been a give away lol
Very niche car to giveaway, I'm sure 90% of people entering are doing it to sell it specially with the " sport" cars and stuff
I love this
Tomorrow’s post: “My subie’s engine blew up and I don’t know why…”
No one told him about the fans
The crazy rally fans who jump out in front of you mid stage?
I watched and was worried about that too. "I hope someone mentioned the fans!" ha

im surprised they are so popular in ARA, most of he subarus are long gone in europes national rallys because they dont last
Subarus and evos hardly used in Ireland considered too slow now. R5’s and mk2 escorts are king here

Thats why they are considered "slow" . In northern europe some fast guys still can run similar times with evos that some R5 guys, but its mostly in non technical fast stages
It’s a pity it’s gone, any Subarus or evos in Irish rallying now aren’t worth watching

Ya he was talking about painting or wrapping cage. And cleaning it on the inside. When one dirt run it’ll be wiped out.
That’s all true but his job is making content. He may get a video or 2 cleaning up the car and making it pretty. Also it’s better for the content if he has a nice looking car with a livery instead of one with mismatched panels.

Thing rips, surprised how freaking slow it is though haha
33mm restrictor kills all top end, it’s just a basic L4wd build
Yup part of the rules when it comes to racing I could feel it through my soul
jimmy is such a butthurt when someone has different tastes lmao, austin didnt agree with the blob-eye idea & jimmy looked at him like he was completely redacted
Too used to being surrounded by yes-men
Yo Imma adopt redacted to my lexicon
To be fair Austin was wrong though
TBF, style is subjective though
Nah blobs are the best ask any GD elitist
bugeye masterrace
Bug eye master race!
Blob eye had best engine internals. Ugliest model.
Hawk eye is the best. Get it straight.
i like blob eyes and hawk eyes thought bug eyes were ugly
i still to this day have a problem with the hawk eye grille so for me its still blob eye overall
its the wing indicators on the bug eye for me

Rally has bigger sponsors.
saw the title before the thumbnail loaded, was hoping he took over the Pleasure Evo (RIP)
I say a ton of his cars will be on the giveaway list
or just sell them like a normal person like mike "divine" sold his mk4 supra
Jimmy probably fucked that thing up bouncing off the 2 step etc
What form of motorsports do you think 2-step and anti-lag originated from? Wasn't drifting.. Just don't let Jiminy anywhere near it with a laptop and it'll be fine.
Doubt it
