[@kevind_53]

A lot a people are scared to buy a use one. I bought a 2018 brz tS during summer at about 32 000 miles. Went from a Speed3 platform and my girlfriend own a 2016 STI. I must say these thing are pretty "cheap" to maintain compare to the STI or the Speed3! You can always have surprises when you buy use, but i must say for a first "cheap" sport car they are hard to beat. Check your oil, do the basic maintenance and you are ready to have fun thats about it! Subaru/Toyota offered a super nice platform for the enthusiast to learn and grow with the car.

[@jonathanmorando5240]

I'm Super Stoked about whats to come for this car. I own a 2015 limited Brz with almost the same mileage. Even just getting an experts opinion on what you recommend using for just general maintenance products is gonna keep me glued to this series. Appreciate your work.

If you change the oil every 5000 miles, put in the normal full synthetic, and check your oil and other fluids at least once a week, this engine will repay you will reliability and longevity. Granted my car is not boosted. Also, I've changed the plugs on my FR-S twice without jacking up the engine. It's tough but it can be done

[@Carlos.Rivera]

Jacking up the engine make it the task a breeze

[@darrellborland119]

@Ellis Jackson: Thanks for your comment. We own a 2020 turbo OB. I sent a sample to Blackstone Labs at 40K, had 10K on the sample, and changed the filter at 5k interval, and 0-20 synthetic. The report came back with recommendation to go to 12K before next oil change. We drive mostly long distance, with very few cycles. Interesting, eh? 😇

[@ellisjackson3355]

@@darrellborland119 that's good! And you're welcome. I've driven my car long distance, city driving, a couple of track days, some abusive driving. I always change every 5000 mi. A couple of times I may have gone over on the interval a couple hundred miles. Most of the time I use Subaru oil filters. Switched to 5w-30. Haven't sent a sample to black stone yet. But it's got 170k+ miles on it and the engine runs nice and smooth, no noises, so far so good 😊 I'm saying this to say that as long as you keep up with the oil changes you'll more likely make the engine last as long as possible without catastrophic failures. I always make sure to monitor the oil level too. And I've never used high mileage synthetic oil

[@stevef3521]

I recently picked up an FR-S. Higher mileage but well maintained. Any reason you choose to not run high mileage oil?

[@ellisjackson3355]

@@stevef3521 I bought mine with about 48k miles so in the beginning it didn't need high mileage oil. As time went on I just kept putting in regular full synthetic. Idk what different additives are put in high mileage oil but I've always stayed away from it. I've never put it in any cars that I've owned and I've owned mainly higher mileage cars. Non high mileage will still lubricate your engine just fine. I've just completed a 2100 mile trip in my FR-S, did a regular synthetic oil change right before. Now it has 179k and still runs good, no problems. But now that you mention it, it would be a good idea to call the tech dept for say Motul or Valvoline and ask them about it

[@CptFUNK1]

My 2016 BRZ chooches along quite nicely. I have winter tires on it, and it handles the snow just fine. Please continue producing videos on yours.

[@Jordan-ki6ow]

You've been my go to Subaru guy for the past few months. I picked up a 2014 BRZ premium for 15,5 with 79k miles at my local subaru dealership and have been in love with the car since. Since this my first real car that I have purchased, keeping this car up to prestine condition has been something that I am making my main goal. This video is a perfect example of what to go over in a used vehichle without any of the down and dirty work. Just simple inspections that could save your ass thousands if taken the time to do so. This video gave me the wearabouts as to what I should be looking for in my used BRZ and I highly appreciate that. There are countless vids that will tell you how to mod a brz but very few actual describe how to main a brz throughout years of ownership. Also, with someone who has 0 friends or family that know a thing or practically anything about cars, having simple videos like these go a long way!

[@Luweezy]

Yo thats awesome I guess I should try waiting it out then, since I've been eyeing a subaru brz 2013 though. With 80k mileage for $15,600, gonna try waiting it out for a 2014 if I don't get too excited about just buying the 2013 one😅 since it'll be my first real car that imma buy as well

[@darkmasterno2]

I have been owning by 13 BRZ since 2014. Bought it used @ 12k miles, and now about to hit 100k with decent amount of mods. Still running really smooth like brand new but with regular standard maintenance (oil change, regular inspection, tires etc). There was a coolant leak at thermostat and replaced it right away. That was the only major repair. I notice some bushings are slowly getting worn out, but it’s about time anyway. Anyway, fun daily driving car, gas efficient and teaching me a lot on how to DIY everything.

[@zacharyshoemaker835]

@@colexoible6382 My bad brz video first engine that came to mind is the FA20 they come with. I've watched plenty of videos with people blowing up their Frs,brz,86s yrying to shortcut straight to forced induction without addressing their CR first. The FA20 is really efficient for what it is for comparison my 98' Ej25d makes 165 hp and has .5 more liters. So as far as N/A standards go its a good effiicient engine. I just hate watching people blow their cars up by being egged on by the community. Same people in my community will encourage people to turbo their EJ25D'S. Can you? Sure. But its an open deck powerplant so its not going to be boosted for long.

[@colexoible6382]

@@zacharyshoemaker835 i think as long as you've managed your expectation the fa20 can hold boost from what I've seen. how much and for howling idk, i haven't looked into/worked on one (will be soon hopefully🤞) but yes the rest id deff agree, and if you want it to last supporting mods is always best to do. Also here the general consensus is if ya got a na ej its not worth it.

[@burakoshimazaki]

​@@zacharyshoemaker835 it's more the conrods and too much low end torque or detonation. It's somewhat knock limited because it has that high compression and lack of high enough octane and strong conrods. However you can push these engines on some decent boost if your tune is good and you know not to lug the engine. I've had mine turbocharged for almost 2 years and I've had it reach about 1 bar of pressure. I wouldn't want to go any higher than that regardless of fuel quality unless I had at least some forged conrods. A friend of mine uses the stock compression ration but a built engine and pushes about 600 horsepower at the wheels in his BRZ.

[@thomaswomack3888]

so glad you are doin g some brz vidz i think you'll get plenty of good feedback from them. I just ordered my second one last month and loved the 2017 model i had. great car right out of the box...easily made better with minor tweaks to the basic package wheels and tires being up near the top of the list. You probably already have done your upgrades but 17x8 wheels with 235/45-17 rubber makes for a great compromise between unsprung weight ride quality, grip in corners and under braking, and minimal impact on fuel economy. I know you'll enjoy your new hot rod :)

[@stealthg35infiniti94]

My only major issues on our 2015 BRZ Limited Auto has been failure of the rear Differential making excessive noise around 68 mph (Warranty). The other the Electric Power Steering clunking. The plastic coupler was destroyed. I replaced the coupler for $8. Subaru didn't sell the part, they wanted $1400 to replace the entire EPS. The car is dependable and fun to drive. The cabin is noisy that has required extensive sound deadening. It is a good commuter car but, it will kill your back if you plan 6 hour trips.

About running low on oil: On my engine there is about a full quart of oil between the min and max mark on the dipstick so I fill up to the max then it can loose an entire quart and still have enough oil for the pickup to the submerged at all times. And a quart doesn't just vanish that would probably take me 20.000+ miles to burn and I don't have any bad leaks. With there being a windage tray and often upper oil pan between the oil and the crank I don't see any harm in filling up the oil to the max level in any car.
