THIS ^ The other engines and years do not have to come apart to even remotely the level of the FA20. They also do not use sealant for every mating surface even if they did come apart. The instructions are radically different. There are three 13 FRSs out there for every 13 BRZ so the Toyota techs will have had more practice by now.
