For future reference. You forgot the factory required Subaru Upper Cylinder Cleaner at service intervals. And the oil filter and the oil dipstick needs to be cracked to allow the oil to flow out from the filter. Oil lock
I noticed you do great track preparation and all drain plugs have magnets along with collecting lab samples. Have you considered using a filter mag on the oil filter and cutting it open or do you already do this?
Hello, I did my first oil change with 0w20 motul, I’m close to my next oil change and I wanted to ask if I should go with 5w30? I live in South FL, so you know how’s the weather. I don’t track my car, just daily driving and sometimes spirited driving. I love all your videos and in a future I would like to make my gr86 a track build, just like yours!
Awesome video! I'm about to prep my mustang for my first track day as well. Do you do this before everytrack weekend? How many weekends does the engine oil, diff, brake, and transmission fluid last you?
I’m about 500 track miles on the oil and 2,000 on the trans and diff. Looks like i can push it further but I’ll see what blackstone labs says about the fluid
@@phelpsgarage4202 and @MegaBabyRawr Engine depending on heat I would say 500 is pretty low, but still a good cheap insurance vs a hurt engine. I have always done around 1k miles on engine oil depending on how much heat it sees(Summer time vs winter temps), trans and diff usually around that 2k mark as well for my street/personal track cars. Race team I work for our race cars (GT4 class) get engine oil every other race event which is also roughly 1000 miles or 10-12 hours of running. Sometimes we do push it an extra test day or two (200-400 miles/2-4 hours more) and that's fine by the manufactures. The gearbox and diff we usually do ever 3rd or 4th event. 2000-3000 miles depending on how much testing happens between races. Brake fluid is something that we do at least 1 a race weekend or as needed if you get a weird peddle feel. You always want good reliable brake/pedal feel.
@@phelpsgarage4202 Awesome! I noticed you didn't swap the rotors when swapping new pads. How many pads do you use before new rotors? Does that affect your bedding or pad glazing at all? I have factory rotors on my 30k mile Mustang. Pads are worn so I'm looking to get new pads for street + my first track day. Would it be okay if I did what you did and just swapped new pads in on old rotors (new pads will be different material - ceramic)?
Just making sure nothing moved around in the last year or so. You want to have a little preload on the spring. Fortune auto has everything on the site on where preload should be.
