    Any street tire offer better dry traction than Michelin Pilot Sport 4S ?

    ECS 02 is very similar, might be improvement in wear and wet. S 5 seems like a long wait. One category above is newly released potenza race, they don't give beat feel until warmed up but they should last longer than very high grip 200tw tires.

    Motul released gear power MTF and it's available now

    I haven't got a chance to change fluids yet. I have track day on March 23rd, planning to do diff, transmission and engine oil changes a week before then. My factory fluid I think is LV (low viscosity) fluid, so 75w straight, with track days and other events last year I don't think report would...

    Motul released gear power MTF and it's available now

    The previous gen's manual had 75w-90 for few years and then for some model year (I think 2015) they decided that they want Toyota's recommended viscosity on other cars, 75W straight. 2nd gen did the same with pretty much the same transmission. I have about 6,500 miles on factory fluid but that...

    Looking for oil for Subaru BRZ with FA24D

    On the topic of oil pressure and oil coolers I started going over all threads and videos related to oil cooler. I posted in Ascent forum as well, seems like there is no oil cooler on Ascent. People who have aftermarket external oil coolers are having pressure issues in turns. There is no...

    Looking for oil for Subaru BRZ with FA24D

    Frankly I am not sure why you think I said that I have oil pressure issue. I didn't. To clear out the confusion I was looking for advice only about oil temperature which I saw on the gauge. I was using mobil1 extended performance 5W30 and I was doubting if it was enough protection at that...

    Looking for oil for Subaru BRZ with FA24D

    That looks good. Expensive though. Would it be much better than mobil1 FS 5w30 or 0w40?

    Looking for oil for Subaru BRZ with FA24D

    Yes, but no fix is there, so going to do what I can and be prepared if engine still blows. Temperature I think is it's separate issue as well, so is RTV.

    Looking for oil for Subaru BRZ with FA24D

    I have BRZ as well. What was the approximate temperature? Crossed 270? Mine stayed short of 270, I approximated to 250. It's great to hear you can hit advance group without a cooler. I think I would be spending one more year at least in beginner.

    Looking for oil for Subaru BRZ with FA24D

    Edit: NM, it's the heat exchanger again, I am asking on ascent forum to check if it has oil cooler.

    Looking for oil for Subaru BRZ with FA24D

    Got it now. When I first googled Subaru ascent oil cooler, a heat exchanger picture showed up. That's where I got confused because my car already has that. I will do some digging and see if it has radiator type cooler.
