#2 is QuickOilDrainValve.com you want the 16mm one.
#3 is any auto parts store. Just show up with the valve and get a foot or two of transmission oil cooler hose or fuel hose that will fit. You can get heater hose, but it may deteriorate over time. |

I ordered the F-105 from qwikvalve.com. I'm installing tomorrow. I'll do a DIY on how it works, install (unscrew, screw...duh).

My guy at the Scion dealer told me they won't change it until 7500 miles in the fr-s and also that we only get 2 services no matter what!
I'm a little curious as to how this is going to turn out. |

7500 mile oil change intervals would make for 3 oil changes.

My dealer wouldn't do it early, but, I get mine at 5k and get 5 changes. Time for you to find a new dealer.

For verification, the F-105 does not work. The company I purchased the valve from suggested the wrong part after I let them know I had a BRZ. Well, return time.
Oil change was easy, about 30m. My oil filter was on -really- tight though so I had to punch a small screwdriver into it to get it to turn as my strap wrench wouldn't fit in the space where the oil filter sits. Hopefully my new Subaru filter which I tightened will come of easier next time around. Subaru suggests 3000m for the First oil change btw. |

I changed my oil at 1010 miles. The filter was on tight. I Hastings usemy strap wrench to get it off.
The oil drains really quickly. It overwhelmed my catch pan. The crush washer was not coming off the drain plug. I would of had to gouge the plug to remove the washer.
