There are the support mods that come to mind,
Silicone radiator hoses
Hood vents
Oil cooler/radiator combo
Catch can
Thermostat
Maybe upgraded fans.
Do I need anything else?
I will be using the brz for autox and street.
Thank you.

What is your end goal? Just HP goal for some stoplight daily driving fun or serious all out track build or something in-between?

Silicone radiator hoses - nice to have
Hood vents - nice to have
Oil cooler/radiator combo - should be fine but I prefer a dedicated oil cooler
Catch can - nice to have
Thermostat - never heard about this one
Maybe upgraded fans - no

I do autox maybe 8 times out of the year and stop light action street . Not a track build. Also it's not my daily. I Want 250/280 hp and 220 tq.

Hey gang, oil change coming up, last time i put 0w20 in because thats what the cap says, but since ive learned that FI owners typically put in a little heavier weight. please, im not looking to start another oil thread, just a simple weight for DD, no track, in new england weather. should i go with a heavier weight, or stick with 0w20? i drive like a grandpa for what its worth. I drive my car to work, and i drive it to the gym, and i drive it to the grocery. i dont have an oil cooler. just a c30, zero other engine mods, running 91 octane. TIA

I run 0W-20 amsoil SS with an oil cooler per my tuners recommendation. C38, 93, standard pulley at the time. He said 5w-30 is a band aid for high oil temp situations if you're pushing it without an oil cooler. That being said if you don't drive it like you stole it like I do I'd say run a good 0w-20 oil and you'll be good.

CSG Mike · 09-17-2020, 01:32 PM

0W30 or 5W30 full synthetic, with oil cooler.

Mike, is that the recommendation with an oil cooler (e.g., JR dual radiator/oil cooler) regardless of how hard one drives? Just curious since I've got about 10K miles on my JRSC C30 and have only ever used Mobile 1 full synthetic 0W20.

Yes, with the oil cooler, and yes, regardless of how you drive, as if you have a SC, you probably didn't get the SC to never use the extra power!

Just be careful with oversteer, check/tighten the possible leaks, and enjoy.

degozaru · 09-29-2020, 05:07 PM

On another note: what should I be monitoring for health of the system, especially on track?

I have the JRSC oil cooler installed alongside it, but are there any other well known problems that happen on track?

I know I should be monitoring oil pressues, but not sure where to start.
