Yeah bro.. never do what other people want or should tell you to do. Do what makes you happy and comfortable. In the end, it’s all about your decisions. BRZ will rise again.
It’s not that the motors can’t handle that powers. The blocks can hold 500hp easy it’s the pistons and internals that are the weak point on them. The best thing I can recommend is getting another stock block but with forged internals. That’s probably the cheapest yet affordable solution you could have. If you plan on using the turbo parts send them to get inspected and deep cleaned because if your oil pan looks like that there’s a 100% guarantee that stuff made it to your turbo oil lines and possibly your pvc lines.
This is sound advice, I agree, the affordable yet reliable option is stock block built internals. But I like the idea of having a built block, leaves room for future power gains reliably.
@estebanalicea3591 oh without a doubt man. I have a built ej257 block rated for 700hp from outfront. I’m making about 500hp on e85 with my set up if Chris can afford that which I’m sure he can id definitely recommend it just so he has the peace of mind knowing the motor will handle the power.
That part about you not doing what others are doing and documenting the bullshit that happens because of it is huge. That's what 99% of modern car TH-camrs lack nowadays, the willingness to push the limit so we find out what that limit is, no matter the outcome. Good shit man.
Don’t let this get you down. I remember when I lost my clutch in my first STI. I was devastated. It’s just another obstacle to overcome and a great learning experience. One love and respect homie 🙏
I appreciate that you're taking this as an opportunity to learn, not an excuse. Too many people nowadays take the easy way out. Props to you for manning up and taking ownership to learn from your mistakes. Also thanks for supporting the Padres, SD represent!
To help recoup the costs of repairs, you could do a limited "blown boxer gang" shirt where you include a small piece of the blown motor with each shirt. Could be cool.
regardless of what people say bro at the end of the day they’re still entertained by your content which means youre not doing anything wrong keep doing what your doing this is just part of being a car enthusiast content creator
Dude, never apologize for doing you. You money, your car, your channel. When it works everyone starts doing it, if it doesn't everyone says what were you thinking. You always have to go outside the box of life gets boring. You never made excuses and took responsibility and came away learning that you cant have a weak link in the chain. Much respect.
I’m always down when something happens to my cars but you always have a positive attitude. I blew my water pump before a race and now my y hose is leaking. I’ve been in the slumps about doing it but this gave me motivation to get it done and take my car out again. Thank you. Good luck on the rebuild
Respect bro. Discovered your channel through your last video. Hated seeing the comments because just like you mentioned, you are a content creator, boosting your car is natural. It’s also clearly your passion! Big ups for taking responsibility and learning. I’m looking forward to what’s next for you!
Way to keep your head up Chris. I'm a strong believer in doing what makes you happy. If we all did what everyone else told us to, we'd never be happy. The most important thing is that you're taking this as a learning experience. Strange to say, but lots of people are going to benefit from this experience. You learn by doing as my old math teacher used to say.
I love the commitment that Chris put into this build!! Thanks to Austin for getting him into this🙏 love this content and seeing Chris enjoying even if it means blowing the motor 🙌
Really cool that you showed us the aftermath what happened to the engine. Educational purpose for sure. I've always wondered how much damage a blown motor looks.
@@chris_borges no problem, sucks to see the brz down, but i know it will be back better than ever soon enough, Austin and crew might have to make a cali trip 🤔 to make it happen
Don’t worry about the negative comments broski! Keep doing your thing! I’ve blew my motor last year, it’s all apart of the car game 🙌🏾 but it gives us more knowledge and makes us learn new skills like removing/working on a motor 🔥 can’t wait to see this thing back
I don’t ever comment but It’s so dope to see people pushing limits on new motors and chassis, every crazy idea is “dumb” until it works ! Thanks for being different
The FA 20 was known for dropping rocker arms when over revving as the camshaft and spring tension is the only thing holding them in. Happened to me, potential cause perhaps? I see the same design used in that part of this engine.
Chris ignore the haters n the comments do you my boy! It’s your life ain’t nobody paying yo bills or been through the stuff you been through! Keep all the content coming please always keep it real 🙏🏼
Can't wait to see the Brz back together stronger and badder than ever before. As for your blown short block, I would say have it as an art piece of some sort. Much love brother glad you guys came out okay from it.
I spun a rod bearing on my Sti a couple days ago and seeing the motor out of my personal car was nuts too! But now it’s comeback season for the brz she’s gonna be a beast 🔥🔥
Wow that SEMA event was 2 years ago? Time flies! Glad to see you jump right on it and get things going also really interesting too see the ins and outs of automobile machinery like that. Eager to see the next part!
Can’t wait for the comeback Chris. Screw the haters I fw what you doing literally been my inspiration since I started watching you since I was back in hs and u just wrapped the brz red. Finally got a 23 brz of my own last year doing to do a similar but different style of build to yours. Plan on boosting mine when I get back from deployment next spring and can’t wait to see what you have in store for the brz
Chris don’t listen to anyone at the end of the day people need to understand that it’s your build not there’s and its your money and everything love your videos keep up the good work
Im impressed with how fast Chris has bounced back from this. Already on it with finding a solution out of a car guy’s worst nightmare. Cant wait to see the BRZ back on the road bro. My dream is to meet you and see my 86 next to the BRZ🫡🤝
chris you are unstoppable 🔥. don’t give up keep it up! you got this and god is with you. he planned this so it will alright. keep your head up chris 👑🔥
It's great what you've accomplished with the 2nd gen platform and sharing it with us on your channel. I'll be getting a GR86 soon myself. Thank you. I do have a question though. I've always thought a rev limiter is just that. Slipping clutch or not, once the RPM reaches the limiter, that's as high as it will go. The only way an engine can exceed an RPM limit is by a mechanical means of forcing it to do so, such as accidentally shifting into a lower gear that exceeds the engines mechanical limits (e.g. money shift). I've only owned and driven manual cars, pickups, and SUVs for roughly 25 years now, so I have a bit of experience.
Idk man ik Austin’s works great but like you said you’re the only 2. If you’re going through ALL this effort build at least the pistons. They’re not too expensive and for the sake of the next owners longevity it’s worth it.
What a sight! I’ve been working on Subarus for a couple years and never seen anything like this. Upgrade the internals and clutch so you don’t have to do this again. Good luck bro, you got this 👍🏼
People with Negative comments keep that Bs to urself! Those are the type of people that are helllaa$$ broke , cheap asses, and aint got the b@lls to do something like this so damn haters step ya game up! All my cars are crazy modded as well cause stock cars are boring! Im new to the Gr86 community C.B thanx to you and other in the community i am learning to capabilities and potential of my new GR86. Keep up the great work and my best wishes for ur car!
Watching you stay positive is amazing hopefully you can rebuild the engine better than ever I'm hoping to eventually get an iag block in the future and do a 2.5 or if they have it by then 2.6l na upgrade
Don't feed into the negativity and discard the haters. YOU do you for YOU and not because someone else tells you what to do. We watch you because you're entertaining to watch and see the limits you pursue. Let them sorrow to something they will never achieve.
Damn 😢crazy to see all that damage 💔. As bad as it is, it's a learning process. Look at you pulling apart a motor 😅. Keep your head up King 👑bigger and better things on the way.
Sadly it happened so soon right after getting the turbo! but it just makes for what’s next for the BRZ one heck of a journey to come and a comeback to look forward too! Big Fan Chris watching you all the way from Hawaii
Check the turbo turbine and compressor wheels for damage, hopefully it’s okay but it’s highly likely debris went through the exhaust and into the turbine wheel 😢
Blowing the engine is just a sign you outgrew the stock engine internals. Time to beef it up to handle that turbo. Get an ACT clutch. Come back stronger and never give in. Haters gonna hate. Let them. Keep it going. Grow from this. 👍👍
Don't listen to the haters bro, the only way to live is being someone that isn't afraid to break the norm and do what you love and are passionate about! 👌 love the positivity, trying to do the same with my blown motor 😅😂
Yo don't listen to these tools online who criticize and talk shit, that is all they got going for them(talkers) Keep pushing forward and learn as you make progress.....your channel is dope, car is dope....and boost and high power is fun and worth pursuing.... KEEP AT IT
That clutch looks suspiciously alright. Are you sure the clutch was 100% slipping? The only reason I ask is because I also have a turbo 23 brz on ecutek tune and I was running into an issue recently where I also thought my clutch was slipping. I would punch it in 3rd or 4th and the revs would suddenly climb and then settle which immediately made me think my clutch was slipping. Someone pointed out the traction control plays funny with the ecutek tune when you are in normal mode (not track mode). When I switched to track mode it runs like normal. Just food for thought. I still think your car over boosted like crazy but it may have been the tune and not a slipping clutch.
The same people that were “hyped” about the turbo install are the same ones trying to coach you about a car. Just do you bro, you always ask what we think, build for you not for us, the real ones are gonna support you regardless, I sure do!
Damn,I haven’t seen a motor blow into that many chunks! That thing looks like it went through a cheese grader on the inside. Glad to see you keeping your head up! Keep it up Chris!
Call it a day and swap in an LS or coyote. Make the same horsepower NA with light bolt ons. Or get a better 4 banger from honda n turbo that. Honestly boxers are best left stock.
Man i don’t think people are talking shit bro. Unfortunately man we all kind of expected this. The thing is all the TH-camrs kind of have the same method of modifying a car. Full bolt on but hardly ever take the engine to a machine shop. I been working on my cars and sometimes it takes years to get them where they are. But you guys full bolt on after a few months or year and almost everytime you guys blow the engine because the engine has to go to a machine shop. Plus everything else like clutch and all that has to be made for the power. It’s a reason Tj Hunt, and Dustin have gone into Motorsport programs because they have blown enough engines to understand that it’s a lot more to this. If i were you before buying another subi engine, look into a LS platform. You get the same power without any issues. But again i love your content and do what makes you happy bro.
WOW... you Really fried That motor!😮 Hey, you live and you learn, right??! Next!!😂... maybe you could put a LS swap in it!!😅 Idk...😂project in the making though!
Hey Chris! I recently celebrated my 2-year anniversary with my girlfriend, and she surprised me with an FRS skateboard, #8 of 10. I saw the note and your emails to my girlfriend, and I really appreciate it a lot. I just wanted to let you know in a comment, and I hope this makes your day a little better after your motor blew up. You've got this, and you will come back stronger! Love your videos, and keep it up!

Thanks Chris for showing us the inside of the engine. thats so crazy! what was the reason? money shift? bad clutch? over rev rpm? too much power?

Damn sad😢
Bro's motor did the lego sound effect
Hitting "redline" caused the blow out? Did you guys disable the governor when you tuned?.......
So sad this didn’t make it.
Got to stay low boost untill clutch is done.
500s is probably getting close to red territory.
These clutches start slipping long before that, id say leave it under 420-450 whp and 380-400 tq or less.
