Blew Up My BRZ Motor with only 20,000 Miles…

Well... it happened. One of the worst nightmares as a car enthusiast happened to me tonight in my BRZ. You live and learn. Definitely learned a lot in this situation to prevent something like this to happen again but just gotta remain positive through a sucky situation! New OEM block? Built forged motor? Stay tuned and follow along to see what's next for the 2022 BRZ.

Well here come the comments, just gonna say a few things here before people go saying “it’s cause it’s a 2nd gen” or try and blame it on unrelated things, I’ve been making 600+ whp for almost 10k miles without issues, a first gen FA20 wouldn’t even make it off the dyno with that much power. this was 100% caused by the clutch slipping. What likely happened was the ECU saw no load while screaming at the top of 5th clutch slipping; and compensated by adding a bunch of timing. Being during a 5th gear pull, that is a ton of power and stress on the car. Shit happens and Chris will come back stronger. -Austin

[@absolutelyfailz4480]

Got it. Who tuned ? Next time maybe tune out some of that additional timing and set a limit. Just food for thought in the next build. On the bright side the tuner will be making bank noe he needs all this work done and a new tune. Car sounded so good while it lasted. Hope we get to see a similar build on the channel

[@AmanEightSix]

Great response Austin! and Chris things happen man don’t stress to much about it all love bro

if it over revd wouldnt it have just hit limiter?

[@Boostedbanter]

@@smeat1519 it didn’t overrev, it was slipping sitting at the limiter in 5th gear, and with no load because it was slipping, the ECU didn’t know it was in 5th gear. The software on these cars is still very much in beta, not a lot of fail safes in place yet unfortunately

As a 04 STI owner. It is a known fact bro in the Subaru community that once you push over 450hp you need a built block to make it last bro. Build it good for 800+(by someone reputable) and stay in the 550-650 range and you’ll be alright. In this case “ do everything once “.

[@Alamina5.0]

After my younger brother had passed away last month. I took over his STI Impreza that was fully rebuilt and put back to stock tune. I’m learning about Subarus more and the more I can tell, these cars aren’t meant for power or speed. They were meant for agility, turns, corners, suspension, etc. might as well leave the motor alone and just focus on handling. I may never have these problems as I come from muscle cars and my most recent one I had was a 2011 mustang GT with 700HP and I never got to use all of that power. I found it pointless. I remember my brother and I would talk smack about each others cars but now that he’s no longer with us and I took over his car to preserve his passion, I am only beginning to realize what he was talking about. Why people drive such cars like the subie. May you rest in peace

[@ryancampbell98]

just a heads up about the statement you made at the end Chris. Building a block with strong internals rated for high hp is important even if your power goals aren’t demanding of it! Having a built block is not necessarily what makes more power, you build your block to handle higher amounts of power safely . It’s all about durability and what the block can handle. You said the stock block is enough for you because it made 600hp and that you don’t need a built one to “make” more power but who knows how long the stock block will last and how reliable it will be in the future. You want a built one so it’ll last longer when your beating it up making power significantly more than stock. Hope this makes sense. If anyone disagrees, im open to constructive feedback.

[@NoNo-yb7ds]

Right on the money bro !

[@lookinlikegeo1825]

Agreed, although built motors aren't meant for longevity, maybe 75k Miles is plenty longevity for a racecar

[@chris_borges]

Appreciate this comment! 🙏🏻

[@kushobrz]

Not necessarily. The FA20 did not like being opened up and resealed, its a known thing.

[@NoNo-yb7ds]

@@lookinlikegeo1825 True, also depends on how much you beat on the thing, and how well you do your regular maintenance. Him just doing pulls around town and on the freeway now and then, it should last a good long time. If he takes as good of care as the inside of the car as he does the outside I don’t see issues coming his way.

You're essentially the only guy I actually watch vlogs. It sucks man, I blew my engine on the FRS and it was... well, the same reaction as you, just plain disbelief. I ended up getting a crack in my engine and smoke spewed out all over the highway as I was getting up to speed to merge. I got my car back in January and I got an IAG Short Block in it now and it's stronger than ever. Always better to be safe than sorry; having a built block meant to be able to sustain and maintain the HP you produce is everything. At the end of the day, it hurts and I get that but you'll bounce back stronger than ever as I did and many many other car guys who went through these kinds of tough times.

Couldn’t have said it better 🙏🏻

[@denebh733]

Beautiful car, but the stock block CANNOT handle 400+ reliably on both FA and EJ engines. Reputable bottom end with forged internals, build to handle 750 and you can run 550 reliably, with EJ and FA engines you gotta build for higher than you plan on making if you want it to be reliable. You'll make a crazy comeback I know it.

[@plasticksrt]

Always consider engine life in “WOT minutes”. There’s no definite power number for any platform where the motor stays reliable regardless of abuse. For instance a stock motor in most platform usually has a lot of “WOT minutes” left in it. Once you turn up the power you remove a lot of those WOT minutes remaining. Building a motor isn’t more so about holding the power, it’s about increasing the amount of TIME it can hold that power at WOT.

[@OohMyst]

Glad to know you are not going to give up on the BRZ. I got a '22 GR86 because of watching your videos on the FRS and I am glad to say I don't regret it. Also I do like the 30 minute+ videos.

[@blackbirdz714]

I had my Gen 1 86 turbo for 8 years for almost 100k and sold it at 140k miles pushing around 300hp with no issues on stock internals. Anything more than 350 you are really rolling the dice. Not surprised this one blew at the power range it was pushing.

Sorry to hear man. With stock internals this engine won’t last.. The cylinder walls will distort and you will throw a rod. You need to beef up the engine to handle that kind of power.. In the low 300whp range would have been safe. Too much boost for stock internals… You have to know the limits of your engine and it’s not 550whp. Low 300whp would have been reliable bottom line. 550whp is asking for it. Do your research so you know what the limits are safely. It’s not a 2JZ.

Definitely sucks and the emotions go in waves, had a built motor blow at less than 1000k on the dyno, still recovering from that but sucks so hard. For the way forward I would dodge a used block unless you planning to open it up, and as long as you in there, there , might be a few things that you can toss in. Otherwise just run a new block from Subaru, and dodge the headache. It's rare people pull functioning engines especially on newer models unless they got deep pockets and big ideas or it's a write off, otherwise can end up with a engine already oil starved and knocking. Just my 2 cents do whatever makes sense for your situation though.
