valve spring issue? - Page 5 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

So the question is will the announcement come on November 5th or the 4th (Japan is a day ahead of the States) and will it have the details we all need, or is it going to be one more step in further obfuscating the truth?

Stay tuned; same bat time, same bat channel!

My main concern is how it'll be deployed in the Toyota side.

People being salty in this thread: we've got it easy with reliably Subarus, people who hop on the Supra bandwagon are going to sh!t bricks.

I believe its ringlands from EJ25's finding their way into the FA20 via the intake.

So, don't follow to close to any STI's, you have been warned.

I wonder if following to close to an EJ will void your warranty?

Speaking of which, guess who will have a header and tune for next season!

OK, two cars ago. I forgot I'm on my second twin.

I'd guess yet another lame loser full of excuses and rude commentary, in answer to your question.

Lol. I can't do rude commentary any more. Now that I've volunteered to help TSSCC, which means I have to be all proper and stuff. It's the end of an era

News from Japan! Recall is out, VIN numbers from 002028 to 031176.

Build date for recall is between March 2012 and July 2013. Nice plastic intake bro.

And the other Subaru vehicles are a longer period.

"Toyota is recalling about 25,000 Scion FR-S cars manufactured between March 2012 and July 2013. The recalled Subaru vehicles were made between January 2012 and September 2013."

Meh. Any make can have issues. There are millions and millions of non recalled Subaru engines out there including the vast majority of the FRS/86/BRZ.

Spacemane969 · 11-01-2018, 09:33 AM

So how important is this? If I take it in can they somehow check without ripping the engine apart?
