GR86/BRZ FA24 Oil Pan Update 2 | Verus Engineering

[@900BRZ]

Awesome walkthrough. So excited to see see the test data!

[@BrandonTLuong]

Are you part of the testing group 🤩

[@VerusEngineering]

Thank you! We appreciate everything that you've done to help us!

[@900BRZ]

​@@BrandonTLuong I’m helping consolidate and report on the data, but going to keep running the second iteration of the pan (mentioned in this video). Originally I was going to test this version (third iteration), but we wanted to get it on cars with coilovers and stickier tires vs my tame, stock-ish setup. So Tor and some other folks are going to run this version and we’ll see how it does with higher loads.

[@BrandonTLuong]

[@kajetanjaszczak7032]

I've got question What about factory OEM oil dipstick measurements? Any needs to manufacture a new scale or OEM will be able to read the amount of the oil level correctly?

[@900BRZ]

The factory dipstick is still usable as is. It’s designed to tell you the “maximum” oil level in the engine based on protecting the oil from reaching too high up in the engine and contacting the crankshaft. We will have more oil volume at the same level at the dipstick, but we’re ultimately just trying to the oil reaching too high in the engine, so that’s not a problem.

A lot of people who track their car run aftermarket headers because they reliably increase power, even including the GR cup cars. I think a pan compatible with popular aftermarket headers can probably attract a good chunk of people. I personally hope you guys will look into it.

We'll do our best.

[@itszarnzy]

You guys should make a proper gasket for the oil pan too, that way there is no need to apply silicone and nun that would get in the oil pickup tube

[@KennethGay-r1x]

This was going to be my comment. It would be very nice to eliminate the rtv all together.

[@VerusEngineering]

If you take a look at the engine block, the actual sealing surface due to casting is quite small. We wanted to do something like that but felt it best to keep it OEM-esque in this regard as having a pan that continually leaks is quite frustrating. It's not a nice flange on the engine side of things. Sorry.

Simply awesome guys! This is a "must have" for my beloved S/C FA24 BRZ! Just waiting for production.

[@VerusEngineering]

Appreciate it!

[@magikbiped]

The pan looks awesome guys! I will definitely be picking one up when they go into production and I’m looking forward to not having to worry so much about blowing up my engine I will say though that personally I would have preferred to lose a little capacity if it meant I could retain the OE heat shields. I’m not very concerned with overall oil temps increasing, especially since I just installed an oil cooler. I do have a bit of a concern though with the extremely high air barrier temps conducting heat into the pan, potentially coking oil along that wall adjacent to the header. Regardless I still believe in your development and will absolutely be running one of these on my car.

[@VerusEngineering]

We appreciate the feedback and your interest! We will be sure to keep the community updated regarding heat concerns.

[@chaseaspinall7494]

The JDL header is one of the best headers for the platform for the price. Would absolutely love to have this for one of those

[@jumboshirmp]

Second that! Here’s hoping Jesse from JDL sends Verus some scans or headers for testing. I too have the JDL catted UEL. From looking at my setup, the JDL header creates more room than stock. Stock is V-shaped around the pan, and UEL is more boxy. Either this pan fits as is, or significantly more capacity can be had with a design specific to UEL.

[@censoredialogue]

@@jumboshirmp would love to see a list come out of what headers ppl can fit around this pan once it makes production. would be dope if the JDL’s boxy shape can actually accommodate it

[@VerusEngineering]

Sounds good!

[@JupiterxBlues]

Out of curiousity, why was the extra 1.3L size chosen? I hear that only an extra 0.5-1.0L is needed(unless my understanding is wrong). Could it be possible to make it only 1.0L larger instead and make the pan sit just a tad further away from the exhaust manifold and possibly with the heat shield in place? Maybe you could add some cooling fins while your at it.(although not that necessary since oil coolers exist) Edit: Some cars some pass smog tests if the heat shield is removed. The heat shield assists the cat to heat up to its effective heat range quicker from a cold start. So just consider that when aiming for those that have to comply with CARB, myself included.

[@900BRZ]

> I hear that only an extra 0.5-1.0L is needed People are still experiencing pressure drops with 1.0L overfills. The version that I tested had around 1L of extra capacity and I overfilled and there was still a little room for improvement, so Verus pushed a little harder.

[@VerusEngineering]

We maximized the available area. There is no reason beyond that. If we leave the heat shield in place, we would be taking a massive area out of the pan, unfortunately. The heat shield is huge. Maybe their is a way to cut the heat shield where the pan is at and leave it on the outside to pass CARB and run the pan? Are inspectors taking off the underbody panels too now?

[@hardeepasi8273]

@@VerusEngineering I wonder what the total oil capacity of the pan would be if the heat shield was left in place? Do you guys know this figure?

[@kajetanjaszczak7032]

Question number three - does the increased oil volume, would be a negative for oil pump or it doesn't really matter? Would it support OEM stock oil plug & washer?

[@900BRZ]

The goal is to always have oil available to the pump and, in this car, you need better engine oil return (expensive/complicated) or more oil (cheaper/simpler) in order to achieve that. There’s no downside to more oil volume and actually only upsides: with more oil volume you have more thermal mass to handle higher heat.

[@VerusEngineering]

[@topsecretmx5142]

Look at actual tests of gold foil engine masters did a test and it actually increased heat transfer. A simple sheet metal shield did the best. The airspace is the key.

[@VerusEngineering]

Thanks for the advice. We will keep it in mind.

[@VinRZ]

What makes you guys to continue to develop the pan? To my understanding, I thought that Brian's pan can fit most of the aftermarket headers?

[@Pavel_Engines]

Air gap is a great thermal insulator. Leave the oil pan a two-piece design. A one-piece pan will be a cleaning problem for the inevitable rod knock and bearing debris inside an intricate part. Will be much easier to clean a two-piece pan and guarantee cleanliness to the customer. Eventually, casting a two-piece pan will also be easier than a one-piece pan with internal details. Rubber flaps are successfully used in various applications, introduced by Cosworth to the Subaru world some 15 years ago, and now used by IAG and Torque Solutions in their products.

[@VerusEngineering]

It will always have a removable baffle, but the pan itself will likely be cast in time. Thanks for the feedback!

[@AlfredYap]

It would be nice if it's able to retain the header heat shield while having a bit lesser oil capacity. Because i am a daily driver, most of the time could be in a slow moving heavy traffic or caught in a standstill traffic. A lot of heat generated could quickly get trapped inside engine bay and potentially heating up the oil pan too. Compare to car on the move or in track where airflow will help to dissipate heat as per said air barrier.

[@VerusEngineering]

We'll see what we can do but this is directed at track guys specifically!

[@AlfredYap]

@@VerusEngineering thank you so much and highly appreciate what Verus Engineering has done here for the community. it would very nice if there is another version for us daily driver that would go on track occasionally, at least with this solution we could have a little peace of mind going onto track too. thanks again

[@VerusEngineering]

[@hzozafar]

So, in the midwest, it's very easy to get 6-8 track days throughout the year just by scheduling them on cooler days, ambient temps between 60-70 degrees. I don't have an oil cooler and my oil temps stay between 255-265. Halfway through the session I'll do a cooldown lap to bring it down to 225-235, and that's been good enough. Waterford Hills Autobahn North and South Grattan Gingerman M1 Concourse Nelson Ledges Probably would need a cooler for Road America though

[@TimurIskhodzhanov]

With the factory heat exchanger, the oil temperature doesn't depend much on the ambient temperature. I had the same 260ish in 50°F ambient and 110°F ambient. That being said, the conventional wisdom is that at 260°F the oil pressure is too low for these engines unless you're running something like 10w-60

I don’t understand how the engineers of a multibillion dollar company (in this case, Toyota & Subaru) can’t design a flawless engine (or at least fix the oil starvation issue) but somehow a small group of engineers (Verus Engineering) can? Lol. It’s almost like car manufacturers purposely build flawed cars so they become too problematic/expensive to own for long periods of time (hence forcing you to either spend more money on repairs or upgrading to a newer model). Gone are the days where you could put a million miles on your car without even needing to change the oil (hyperbole).

Different targets, different goals. A multibillion dollar company is looking to cut every cost and make a car for the general public that doesn't take the car on track.
