Only one I've seen that developed rod knock is here:

Code:
/threads/2022-brz-rod-knock-and-positive-subaru-experience.3025/
And that obv is likely due to running factory 0w-20 for multiple track days. I'd imagine that oil had sheared down to who knows what viscosity.

But I also wondered this as there has to be quite a few people running much higher grip than SX2's. Also, is it confirmed that this issue doesn't exist on the first gen? I know it's a different pickup design...
