Don't have a BRZ or FR-S but I'm currently running Motul 300V 0W-40 in my Subaru turbo.
The reason is just out of curiosity since Motul recently reformulated the 300V oils, and some of my lowest uoa wear numbers have been with Motul street oils. Oh, and I got it for free from a Subaru dealer with my Subaru MasterCard rewards!
Keep in mind that Motul 300V doesn't have any API or ILSAC approvals since it's a race oil.
If I didn't run the 300V (or another Motul or Red Line oil that I could also get for free), I would probably run Amsoil or Mobil1. Subaru turbos don't like thin oils so I run 40 weights or thick 30 weights. I'm not brand loyal though and have run many different oils. I choose oil specs/approvals over brand.
