"And more interesting, there are alot of people who track their cars with a tune on this forum but its not happening to them?"
They are not all running the same tune, with the same intake/exhaust setups, under the same conditions.

As far as the search is concerned, here's the thing. They're all HPDE events. There is not a single time competition video of the BRZ. They're all videos of my s2k. Unless using a personal timing device (as pictured, suction cupped onto the windshield) makes it competitive. That 5th link is... interesting. |

Well, I do hope you Guys get it sorted out. Obviously, continuing to put new motors in the car can't go on for long. Here's a vid from the OP:

One thing I wonder is with the people who also have coil pack failures if a destroyed sparkplug could cause the coil pack to fail. Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk 2 |

no offense, i'm ESL, but to me these sound like:
1. "...I think there are some things working against you here. 1st, those videos are mostly all "timed events"..." => "going to the track to push your car and your driving skills to the limit is wrong and can void your warranty as you should really be just cruising around 2-3k rpm" ftw is the difference if it's officially timed or not if the point of going to the track is actually drive it at its limits? 2. "Thousands ... drive these cars aggressively every day ...Given the ratio of cars ... adjusted for those that had the ECU played with, what are the odds ..., the odds are astronomically in favor of something other than a manufacturing issue... " => "there is an obvious conspiracy on this forum against the most reliable car maker (who always sorts it out and make it right at their expense and have a proven record of doing right by owners) because all the people who have blown their engines are dishonest - they either participate in timed events or have ecu tune, or both, and they spread lies about toyota/subaru and their quality and willingness/readiness to address any issues because they want their engine fixed under warranty" or did I get it wrong? oh and that disclaimer "..I'm not accusing you of being dishonest..." really doesn't sound sincere |

We need to add "which cylinder did the seal fail on?" to the poll.
Every fail I've seen has been on cylinder one and I don't understand why. |

Eh, the drama got less fun and became tedious and annoying.
Speculate all you want on whether or not people are lying about having a stock drivetrain or whether or not the problem is solely related to aftermarket mawds. It's happening, how widespread is it: does it affect EVERYONE if they drive their car hard or is it a minority that are susceptible? What is the official response as reported by people who have the problem? Everything else is just stroking your e-peen. This has me nervous to do a track day, I've been putting it off but I think I'll just do it anyway. |

Or any info that I'm not privy to?
Must I remind you (in case you didn't see in the other thread) that the BRZ is NOT my car? I just drive it.... lol We're willing to make our car/engine/ecu/whatever available for examination by anyone and everyone who is qualified. There's nothing to hide here. |

Tag you are it.
Find root cause, develop action plan, apply appropriate fixes. There is enough data now, damage and even TSB from other markets point to issues with the fuel system parts and tuning. We as owners will never get a straight answer from the OEM on what they are doing, the problem etc. They want the younger crowd, the aftermarket support and enthusiast and press attention? It all comes at a cost, their owners are going to expect a high level of service and transparency Toyota and Subaru are not equipped to provide at this point.

I wonder if this has anything to do with break in, easy vs. hard. The seal might require heat cycling before it becomes resistant to deterioration...
Would also explain why it's happening repeatedly on cars that failed before, they didn't "break in" the seals. Please prove me wrong on this one. |
