Can anyone confirm this? Sounds like BS to me but just wanted to confirm.

No. There is not a separate plant making engines for Toyotas. These cars are made side by side at the same time on the same assembly lines. This whole "The Toyotas are built differently" is a myth.

People who don't know what they are talking about like to sound like they do on the internet.
On one of the facebook groups I just saw someone say the best alignment you can have is 0 caster/toe/camber. He obviously doesn't even know what caster is or what it does. The amount of young guys that are too lazy to do any basic research on how things work is mind boggling.

Another update about the STI baffled oil pan, both good and bad
Good: I have officially paid for one and am waiting for an eta. I’ll keep everyone posted. Bad: My dealer refuses to install it. As much as I hate to do this, I’m gonna check other dealers and see what they say |

"They are made in different plants" "They batch build all one colour at a time so you have to wait for that colour" "The ones that they have problems with get made as Toyotas and the good ones are BRZs" Oh so many stories! In reality they not only are made on the same line at the same time they are interspaced on the line among the other models made in the plant.

Since it didn't come in a Subaru box, they said no. Told me to call an aftermarket shop they trust. They wanted $400 in labor. Which is what I paid for the damn thing shipped. Guess I'm going to have to go back to not being too lazy to work on my car again.

Ahh this must be how the Subaru factory does RTV application. It all makes sense.
