Your 2022 GR86/BRZ needs this! 

I'll see what I can do!!

@@KevinVo Thank you very much for your contribution to the 86 community. Keep up the good work.

Remove bolts, drop pan. It's literally that simple, you don't have to remove the header or anything.

@@walterhall3704 This is good to know. For all the YT videos that I have seen, people have removed the exhaust manifold. Maybe that just gives you more room to work.

If you have a stock header it will need to be removed. You can't access all of the bolts holding the oil pan on without doing so.

RTV video coming right up! Thanks for the support!

I'll look into it!!

I've got a video coming up next week!

Thanks for watching!!!

how is something so niche and an item you barely use a must have lol

@@callumsimonsen1762 its one of those things that you appreciate when the time comes, and youre glad its there. Also as someone who enjoys doing their own oil changes, this is a game changer to me, but may not be as significant to someone else. It all depends on how you view/value things

@@callumsimonsen1762 every 3500 miles is "barely use"?

I'll put it on the list, but this one may need to wait until I get some sort of kit first haha

Thanks for the reminder!

Hopefully they're not dumb enough to forget to close the valve 😅

1. Break the lugs 2. Put the car on 4 jack stands, one each corner 3. Swap wheels around 4. Snug tight with wrench all lugs 5. Lower all four corners 6. Torque to spec 7. Drive 25 miles 8. Retorque to spec

Some people like it old school!

Good choice!

Thanks! The Elantra N is impressive!

Magnetic drain plugs are great, but if they're catching anything significant you have bigger problems on your hands.

I use a magnet against the oil filter. Im a longtime fan of Fumoto.

Gotta give the people what they want!

Thanks, will do!!

@@KevinVo I just got my own gr86 about a week ago, your videos have already helped so much thank you!

I checked the dip stick! 😅 jokes aside, seems as though people want to see the process so I'll make a video on the subject.

You've got it!

Saw a vid abt it on BTR Justin’s Channel, the redesign actually helps

Looks like dropping the oil pan is the consensus!

Haha glad you caught that!!

It is on the pinch welds. It's indicated by a little section that's sort of notched.

RTV video coming right up.

@@KevinVo YAAAY! Thanks Kevin! :D

I'll be posting a video next week on this!

Oil testing isn't going to be a good indicator as to whether or not you have RTV stuck in your oil pickup.

RTV video it is!

No, just this red one. The blue one is the FTspeed shop car.

You've got it!

No, that would cause the valve to eventually clog.

You answered it yourself, its a Subaru engine. You can buy the filters from Toyota parts dept, and it’ll say Subaru on it still

@@kelvinflores1013 I was just wondered if there was any benefit or price difference.

I don't believe Toyota makes a filter for this, they just whitelabel the Subaru filter anyway.

@@MR3DDev there may be a price difference, but it'd be minimal. I would just get whatever is cheaper.

I'd suggest a wrap instead of a paint job just in case you want to revert back to stock later on down the road.

I have seen a guy with the same color scheme you are thinking of, and it looks good! But don't let us tell you what to do. Do what you want man. It is your car, and you are free to make whatever customizations you want to it.

@@THEjak13H agreed and appreciate the support my idea was to do high quality with light sparkle in both the black and white while maintaining the Toyota 2nd color scheme that came with my white and some black bits just better quality and flipped for the opposite side I thought it might look cool

Haha if only I was baller enough to give it away! Thanks for watching!

Yes for track duty

@@pstoppani Thanks, what about a car that does like 25/75 track street driving?

@@nick_ct_9235 Except for winter driving, I always put in 5w30. If you do any track driving, I'd keep 5w30 in it. Winter is really the only reason to go with 2w20.

Yes 5W30 is recommended even with the oil cooler and vents. As others have stated, if you drive the car in the winter months I would switch back to a 0W20 during those months.

I'd say just get it done now. Might as well.

@@KevinVo i know that i have the free 2 year maintenance, will toyota do it for free at the 1k mark? or does it have to be on the suggested 3.75k for the free maintenance?

@@daff5507 I'd doubt they'd do it at the 1k mark for you, but I can't speak for them so you could ask.

@@daff5507 did mine at 1.5k. You gotta have it for atleast 3 months tho

@@nolifealex damn, i got mine at 1k right now, but only had it for 20 days. I might have to buy some jack stands i guess.

You'll never get all of the oil out. The oil left in the engine is negligible. As for the pump method, that's personal preference but I like the convenience of just opening and closing a valve.

@@KevinVo Easy when you have a lift. For most DIYers that have to deal with a jack and jack stands or stacking wood blocks to clear going up ramps, I can be done with the entire oil change before most people would have it up in the air. Added bonus to not even having to change clothes before\after crawling on the gound. To me the drain valve makes sense on cars with bottom mounted filters because you would need to get under there anyways. With a top mounted filter extractor pumps are a god send.

@@boost331 it's all relative. Unless your car is slammed it's not much of a hassle driving onto 2x4s and jacking the front end up. I've done my fair share of driveway oil changes without a lift haha

Why do you highly doubt it could've been user error? These are on thousands of cars worldwide so to make a consensus from one video you've seen where it's impossible to see why or how it failed wouldn't be wise.

@@KevinVo he was driving the car around normally prior to the pull & it wasn't leaking. i still included operator error as an option. it wasnt until the pull that it opened & drained all the oil, to where he thought he had blown the engine cuz it was smoking & oil pressure dropped. other than that i was thinking of getting one.

@@holeshot26 after looking into Devin's video, his valve actually came off the car. So it either backed itself out or it somehow got hit by something that broke it off. If I had to guess it must have backed itself off because if something broke it off he'd be able to see that damage from that on his oil pan. Not sure I'd chalk that up to the fumoto valve failing.

It's rubber from tires being kicked up off the track

As cars go around the track, the tires wear and deposit rubber "marbles" all around. Tires on the cars in front of you can pick these marbles up and kick them back at you causing the marks you see.

@@KevinVo thank you for the description boss

Will do!!!

I want to say about 20 or so, but it's not just the crush washers it's the convenience factor as well.

@@KevinVo Thx. I get the convenience factor but I think it is good to know the balance between convenience and cost on stuff like this. Convenience mods add up. I wouldn't do this mainly because it adds two points of failure and complexity over the standard plug. You could let yourself say it is impossible for this to fail. I think that says a lot. Given you track these cars, are you really that confident that the plastic clip wont fall out with all that vibration and heat (the latter not being a good thing for plastic parts). How about that spring failing in time? I'd rather have some inconvenience and peace of mind that a properly torqued plug is more reliable. That's me though. Sharing another view point. Of all the products you've reviewed this one has my thinking "not a fan". Good quality review though.

@@pstoppani All fair points! I wouldn't say it's impossible. I think I said it's nearly impossible to accidentally open. I actually don't run this on my track car because I'd rather have the magnetic oil drain plug to pick up any metals deposited in the oil plus that cars up in the air often so it's easy to undo the plug, but for a daily driver I love the convenience this adds. That being said, I'm confident that the clip and spring are adequate in making sure the valve doesn't accidentally open. Even if those were to fail, there would have to be something to hit the lever in a very particular way for the valve to open. All in all, this is something that's completely personal preference!

@@KevinVo glad to hear it’s not on your track car 👍

Interesting! Haven't seen that happen before!

I've turned me car into a ticking time bomb!!!! 😭

@@KevinVo I know! Heheh!

I'm out of gloves currently 🙃

@@KevinVo what's your address? ill send you a box 😂

Coming right up!

It's a thumbnail. I carefully placed my feet on areas I knew would not be damaged. Do you also get upset when race car drivers stand on their cars after winning a race? 😂 It's true, I'm a kid at heart.

You clicked on the video and interacted with it so I'll chalk that up as a success! Haha at least I wasn't in the hood or roof or damaging anything 🤷‍♂️

@@KevinVo I like the channel but I am not a fan of this practice
