Hate to be that guy.. but “why the engine blew up” is probably 36lbs of boost on stock internals. That thing was dope dude, sorry for your loss, time to build back stronger.

500hp isn't much for this engine. Maybe faulty part or build error. Plenty now in gr yaris with this power with the no upgraded pistons the corolla has.

@@remyche8768 it’s the 36lbs I’d worry about more than 500whp. That’s a lot for cast internals no matter what engine. But that’s pretty dope that lots are making 500whp.

@christophergeldien9907 your probably right, but back in Nov 10, 2021 Motive video did a gr yaris build that got 472hp on 36psi of boost, only had its valve springs upgraded, with the motor left unopened and the internals untouched. Helping achieve the feat is a new exhaust, bigger turbo and intercooler, and a fuel system capable of delivering buckets of E85 from a custom surge tank setup. Then I'm pretty sure once they put cams in they got over 500hp with lower boost. And that would of been the non upgraded stock internals. Think possibly some over tighten a bolt, set the engine down to hard and bumped it in a right spot. Iv owed my gr yaris since they first came out and never seen a g16e-gts blow up like this. Iv only seen the miss shifts
Lets just say, we appreciate y'all pushing the boundaries of this platform. It's a big ol bummer but I know y'all are gonna rebuild a beast. Side note, I don't think I've ever seen engine carnage quite like that 😂 Cheers y'all.
Roll back 4 years to the original release data for the GR Yaris and you’ll find one of the special things about the G16E GTS was that it had no valve seats.
Dang that is tough. Thanks for pushing the limits though to keep progressing the platform!

Paying close attention to what works and what doesnt for my 2024 GRC. Thank you and keep modding it
While I have seen plenty of pistons shatter, that is the most complete shatter I have ever seen. I am surprised you guys did not explore the bolt you found in the girdle and the balance shaft weight. (unless the bolt was put there during disassembly). This is absolutely a shot in the dark but if the balance weight came off and struck the crank/rod, it may have created enough resonance to blow the piston up.

the bolt looked untouched and the mounting surface on the weight seemed in tact. i would have questioned that a bit more too i think.
I’m really enjoying following this GR Corolla build, huge bummer that this happened. Really appreciate some of the technical analysis you and the team provide. Hope it comes back better than ever after you sort how you want to move forward with it!
Dang man, sad to hear but awesome to witness and learn from. Ya'll are awesome. Really hoping you guys get to hit the track this year! Either way, I'm here for the state of the art motion picture, nothing is more entertaining than learning about my own car lol
I think you guys need uprated Valve Locks and Rocker Retainers to help keep the valves captive. Lamspeed keep these in stock. I would also recommend the Oil Pan Baffles help to maintain oil pressure under high loads and lateral and downhill heavy braking Gs. 5w30 or even 5w40 should be recommended on these GR Yaris and GR Corollas because honestly apart from fuel economy 0w20 just can't adequately protect the engine under heavy load.

Yeah looks like you need to be very very sure about who builds your head and definitely don’t skip out on better parts!
11:14 my best guess would definitely be rocker/valve related. Very common on both gr86 and GRY. These cars aren't built to be bouncing off redline. I don't plan on hitting redline until I get that rocker retainer kit installed.
I want to see the GR at the time attack! Hopefully you guys find the best way out possible and thank you for pushing the limits 💪🏼 learning a lot of the G16 with you guys! Keep it up
I'm going to go out on a limb and say that this was pre-detonation combined with previous heat cycle damage to the head and longer duration camshaft timing. The combination of factors is likely the culprit, it makes the most sense when considering the alternative possibilities. You can't really point a finger at one issue being the reason this happened.

I think when you changed your oil you increased crankcase pressure and potential got blow by and compressed fuel and oil on the intake stroke. Than as piston 3 traveled to TDC it detonated your piston. That failure potentially put a mix of fuel and oil in the exhaust which cause the large flames. Thats my guess.

yeah there will be a video on it next week
Looks like balance shaft went since it was directly under cylinder 3. Is there a balance shaft delete for these?
check the springs, prob not strong enough, valve float due to rpm/boost, piston smash valve closed, disrupt seat, seat turns when valve open, valve cant close, piston not forged, by by piston, tears
Pre detention is my thinking .. the look of that piston being completely shredded. Time to order a new short block!
I'd bet the valve snapped, and at the high RPM, just turned into a blender. If the piston failed first, the wrist pin would be deformed or broken. The Guys in Europ making 600 to the wheels in the yaris have all gone to Forged pistons and rods, But they are also changing the valves at that power level.
IIRC I dont think thr pistons are forged... Thats unfortunate...
This will be a good discussion to compare how this happened vs the gry in europe making 700whp without blowing the motor.

@vhofdimer6378 yea, same. It's really strange, and in Bahrain from ekanooracing, their fully built yaris has 600awhp. Multiple g16 engines are running 450+ now, and not many have blown up. Before you modify your own grc, you should ask for advice from lamspeed racing as they have done the most research and sell the most useful parts for the g16e engine.
This is terroble to hear. Completely doesn't seem like it was something you did wrong. Seems like the proper precautions and care were taken (correctly sized turbo with the factory pistons and rods). I've never heard of the seats dropping out. My initial thought was a misshift at one time fatigued a valve but didn't cause it to bend completely. Then, one day, the valve gave out from being a fatigued valve, aka very ever so slightly bent valve... but that would be an exhaust valve, not an intake valve, and that's not the case. And then we find out the seat dropped out, and that's not something that can be banged out and must be pushed from the back or pulled out... that's just unheard of. It's easy to just pass it off as a factory defect, and defects do happen, but that would be too easy and nearly impossible to be likely. This is just completely a mystery. Maybe the shop that ground them actually did something wrong. Maybe they heated them. Maybe they did actually remove them and replace them without your knowledge... I would say that is most likely the answer to the mystery. Next time, don't let anyone touch the head, and/or ask for a video of the work done on it. Regardless, good luck. Love your work, and always watching.
I started to think that's not a coincident. All the G16 engines that failed were all Cylinder 3. By judging the head, the piston did smashed into the combustion chamber, the remaining 2 valves were pushed through the seat. I watched another Japanese video, that happened the same way, the guy said the piston disintegrated due to the coating technology that was used on the piston. Honestly, I think the G16 stock cannot handle anything over 400whp.

I’d say 420ish is probably fine. Our final dyno numbers were like 458whp so drop it by almost 40hp you should be good. Our new sequential added so much strain because it was just constantly in boost….

Watch this video, it is from Savagegesse and they do a 1 year review of all the most common fails on the GR Corolla. One of the weakest points is the valve train, it fails on the top end and it takes down the rest of the engine. Another fail is the rear diff overheating, the engine overheating and the crank knock.
