FR-S/86/BRZ Components List (Who Makes What)
 

I wasn't going to post this but with the recent thread debate about who did what again, I've decided to release my extensive research on who really makes what in this car. Hopefully this will make people realize that this car really is a hybrid and is more like 50% Toyota parts and 50% Subaru parts rather than the claimed 95-100% Subaru.

If anyone can add to this list, please do (with some sort of evidence).

That was actually awesome and educational.

Thank you!

Who makes the wheels and brakes?

who makes the gas?

Brakes are:
Hitachi/Tokico Brake Booster, Master Cylinder, Hoses, and Calipers
Bosch ABS Pump
Nisshinbo Brake Pads
Aisin (Advics) Brake Discs

I was not able to find who made the wheels. Probably not a popular brand name. I do know that it was Toyota who designed/styled them though.

if I had to guess I'm going to say enkei made the wheels , they are stamped made in Japan and I remember reading somewhere a while back that enkei has made oem wheels for both subaru and toyota in the past

They have in the past but they seem to always put their logo somewhere on it if they do and the there is no logo to be found on these wheels. So I kind of doubt it's Enkei unfortunately.

hmm while searching around it seems kosei is also a oem wheel maker for honda and toyota

Subaru makes the Scion badges.
The trunk one anyways. It's stamped Subaru on the rear of the badge. Sorry, no photo, but I think it's kind of funny.

Just because it's stamped Subaru doesn't mean they make it. But yes, it is quite humorous that the Scion logos (on the wheel caps too) say Subaru on the back.

Thanks for this!

No problem. Welcome to the forum!

I still don't understand why the Subaru owners look down on the FR-S owners. So many people on the forum are this way.

You're driving the same car buddy...

Just because the Subaru brand has more "merit" in the car world doesn't mean anything when the Scion is the same.

Great thread, great list!!

Could you possibly make the ** and * be of a different colors (As shown) so that its easier to distinguish.

Just a thought, great work regardles!!

Don't worry about it, those who do are idiots.

I've printed this and will treasure this dearly.

Thank you!

...ALSO: STICKY

Updated for ya. ;)

Totally subbed to this awesomely educational thread, this should really be stickied as an end all for future debates of who made what or what percent is what percent

A bit off topic....but I replaced my fr-s clockspring due to me being an idiot. The original clockspring had part #83111CA20 on it. The new clockspring part #83196CA010 from a subaru parts store (since the sticker on the original clockspring had a subaru logo on it). I was hoping the dealer could reset my traction and ABS lights when I put in the new clockspring, but they said the steering angle sensor code wont go off. Took it apart and all the sensors are plugged in correctly. My question: are there different clocksprings for the two cars? Why is this happening?

Hmm, sorry, I do not know about that. Try making a thread in the Issues sub-forum maybe.

Toyota is the bigger company with a much larger and diverse racing history. Which is why I laugh at the fools who think that their driving the "better" car because of its badge and front bumper. Those real fans of the AE86 will know that Toyota always release to versions of their corolla, the Trueno and Levin. This is no different

This list is amazing!! Thank you so much for putting it together. :thumbsup:

Added/updated some stuff. :)

Winner of the dumbest question of the year goes to! ^

In his defense, the question's from last year.

Eh. who cares, it could be dumbest question of 2014.

OHHHHH not even remotely close.

That guy who got banned and got a new ID defending himself claiming about some power increase in 2016 models comes to mind.


Anyways, love this list but i'm sad that the list had to be made in the first place due to elitists.:brokenheart:

Shouldn't the dash and HVAC controls be Jeco? It's even on their website.

Good find! I will add this but Denso definitely still played a part (as their logo is on these parts). Sometimes it's tricky because a part can be a multi-company collaboration!

By the way, I finally have an answer for this question. Hitachi makes the standard wheels using their SCUBA process.

I have the OEM 16'' wheels and they have an Enkei stamp. I assume the 17'' wheels are made by Hitachi?

The stock 17" wheels have no manufacturer's marking. I was wondering for the longest time who made them.

Isnt it funny how the new 2017 model engine specs are pretty much what he was telling you about? Did that thought cross your mind?

Not once. At any rate, his presentation was sketchy at best and childish at worst.

Hey, thanks! I never thought to check the 16 inch ones since they aren't sold in the US.

Thats your opinion, he was talking about the exact same changes that we are reading about today.... So maybe it was you being childish or biased for calling him a liar and making a joke of it without getting the facts straight

Yeah, I wasn't the one arguing with him for weeks. Maybe you should put your misplaced anger elsewhere.

How did you purchase the 16" OEM wheels?

I dont have any misplaced anger, im replying to what u said earlier. Check above, you were making a joke about the guy who gave you details of the new models specs when for all anyone knew it couldve had a turbo slapped on it. He mightn't have given you the mechanical blueprint that a lot of people required here to even entertain the thought that anything like that existed. For all anyone knew it wouldve had a 2.5 v6 slapped on.... Just sayin
