Yeah, it'd catch on fire just like any other

The car isn't the problem, this 1.6L 3 cylinder engine has been running fine pushed up to 700+ hp over in the UK.

So what the fuck even is this thing? All I hear is how this thing is a "rally car for the road". What fucking rally car doesn't have a oil cooler? Why can't this "race car for the road" handle driving on a track from the factory?

should've bought a real track car

>>28522232 (OP)
Every engine failure on track so far has been because the idiot driver was running 0w-20.
Toyota is gay for shipping a car with 0w-20 but it was probably needed to help pass emissions. But either way anyone who runs 0w-20 on the track deserves whatever happens to their engine.

>>28522823
joking right?

>>28522830
What's wrong with 0w-20?

>>28522808
Just due to the way the cards were dealt for Toyota, North America didn't get the hero homologation car (GR Yaris). Toyota's NA marketing department ran with it and overhyped the living shit out of the GR Corolla because "it's OUR turn" mentality, even though the reality is GRC is available in Japan, Canada, Brazil, New Zealand, Australia, etc but of course Americans only believe the marketing.

The car is good, almost everyone reviewed it positively, maybe except Savagegeese because he is heavily biased towards Honda but even he came around and recognized that GR Corolla shines better in the winter/mixed weather. The general tldr consensus says it feels like a modern Evo 8. Not uncommon for Corvette and Porsche owners to have this in their stable. GR Corolla is NOT "a race car". It is as much of a rally car as a STI is - it's a rally derived car.

What you have been seeing is basically an overcorrection from Toyota's well oiled marketing machine. It's a good car, but not immune to typical track fires like the lack of track prep or cooldown laps or switching to proper oil. What you have been seeing in journoslop outlets is them looking for clicks because they know anything mentioning GR Corolla will ride the ripple. Those 2 initial GR Corolla warranty denials that sparked the 85mph meme? Some karen who works warranty for Toyota NA allegedly copy and pasted the denial letter to both owners and reached for the most bullshit reason of denial, which is going faster than 85mph despite the fact the factory PS4 tires are rated for more than that, and Americans get a free NASA track day with purchase.

0w-20 oil is fine for street cars.
On track, I see 270F oil temps even with a Big oil cooler.
Non race oil sees a drop of 20-30% in psi strength above 275F
Means your 0w-20 becomes basically 0w-0 oil.
Then Uncle Rodney pays a visit.

Run Full Race oil, an accusump, oil cooler and it's not a problem.

>>28522877
I don't run shit thinner than 10w30 in a damn thing, I don't give a fuck what the engineers say, infact with old worn out shitboxes I add 20w50 to the 10w30 till it makes atleast over 25psi idling hot.

>>28522903
I've tested 0w-20 and 10w-30 in street cars and the oil analysis come back fine on both.
Largely irrelevant for daily drivers.

Race car uses 10w40 race oil though.
The Stockcar uses 50w but was built to larger tolerances

It didn't explode, the fire was the aftermath of the owner not using heavier oil for tracking. The engine is perfectly fine and wasn't the point of failure of the incident. The owner already admitted to user error on l*ddit.

>>28523451
>Collects all your data, sells it and uses it against your warranty claims
This is an American issue, and basically all manufacturers are doing it (lmao)

>>28522794
This sounds like the same copium Subaru drivers drank for decades when their EJ's exploded at the track:
>dude you should have put an aftermarket oil pickup and baffle in before CORNERING
>anon I can't BELIEVE you didn't pull the screens from the banjo bolts before WOTing your car!
>BRO YOU DIDN"T RETUNE YOUR STOCK CAR BEFORE RACE DAY? IDIOT NO WONDER YOUR RINGLANDS TOOK A VACATION LMAO
Just accept that Toyota, like Subaru, sold people prototypes from the factory.

>>28525832
Okay and Ford issued a recall for Focus RS for having a wrong head gasket installed from the production line (lmao) and this is somehow memoryholed on /o/? And what about the cooked brakes being a weak point of the FL5 Type R?

All I did was identify the facts to undo some of the brain rot here:
>G16E was already pushed upwards of 700+ hp overseas, and still running, way before the GRC even made it to market
>owner of the burned GRC already admitted fault to not switching from factory oil meant for street driving over to heavier oil meant for tracking
>owner also admitted to not taking chilled laps inbetween
The latter two about using sufficiently thick oil and taking cooldowns are not exclusive to this car. The "need" for an aftermarket oil cooler is for if you want the extra edge.

>>28522794
>this 1.6L 3 cylinder engine has been running fine pushed up to 700+ hp over in the UK.
u wot m8? Is that with 100mm turbo running like 70psi of boost?

>>28523864
Pure copium. Most cars can handle it no problem. Only cuckboxes weebcels love aren’t built for that shit. Weebcels would cry, ‘It’s fine when Goyota scams them harder!'

>>28523425
>>No oil cooler from factory
it's a bit interesting because the gt4 celicas had a tranny oil cooler - first time i'd ever seen an oil cooler for a manual gearbox.

>>28526143
Pretty sure they mean engine oil cooler anon.
It's rare for any modern manual transmission to use oil.
They have used more ATF based fluids since the 2000s

>>28526143
The GT4 Celica's transmission shared fluid with the front diff, which also powered the driveshaft to the rear diff. I reckon most of the heat in the fluid was being generated by the diff in this case.

Imagine not running the largest oil cooler you can with a thermostat.

>>28526203
>with a thermostat.
imagine thinking like the engineers that fucked the car up in the first place adding another point of failure when an oil cooler thermostat simply isn't necessary.

It's not about the lack of R&D. It's about building the GR Corolla to meet a specific price point to remain competitive. The GR Corolla pre-refresh (ie before the price creep) didn't even have dual zone climate control, where as the regular Corolla hatchback did above base trim. Toyota most likely does have a GRC oil cooler in the works but reserved for the soon forthcoming GRMN Corolla which is going to be expensive.

>>28526214
I've used an oil thermostat on my track car for years and years.
They are super simple & reliable.
Even a failure means the T-stat still flows oil properly.
No engine failure will occur.

>>28526378
I think Totota knew the GR corolla needed one
But 99% of owners don't track their cars, so it doesn't matter for most.
Selling the car say $500 cheaper is pretty important.

>>28522823
Nissan seem good

>>28525832
Different weight oil is not the same as installing a baffle.

>>28526214
Oil cooler thermostat is definitely needed for any car running an oil cooler, most oil coolers even have built-in thermostats. Without a thermostat the oil will take a lot longer to reach operating temps, and if also means slower oil pressure build up.
Wrenchlet.

Engine failed and dumped oil everywhere. Oil touched something hot (aka part of the exhaust) and ignited.

So far their is 4 big cases with the gr corolla in its history
>1 /o/ guy wrecking his car and being the first to wreck a gr corolla
>3 engine failures. I being a legitimate fuck up, 1 turning out to be a salvage title that the person who claimed engine failure didn't state it was salvage, and this one which is improper prep
My take is that basically it is the same issue as most turbo sporty cars where owners tend to forget that they have to take more care of it due to the turbo. Also Toyota's extremely stupid "no racing allowed" rule almost definitely made as a sweetheart deal with dealerships to keep making sports cars that sell at low volume

toyota should use this engine without the turbo in a hybrid for a base corolla engine while the 1.8 hybrid is for a sport

>>28522232 (OP)

Because the Toyota Corolla and Honda Civic are the top two choices of ricer teens buying their first cars.
It's great for everybody else who buys them because there's never a shortage of parts.

It's not for pavement it's for rally. It will smoke your Porsche in snow.

Toyota should fully stop building cars with turbocharged gasoline engines. Toyota should fully focuse on cars with larger displacement naturally aspirated engines with 6800+rpm redline, maybe they could build engine that is reliable even at 7100rpm. If emissions limits become problem then pair the engine with a single 120hp electric motor, non-lithium ion battery.
