About BRZ Keys

Verified key reference for the Subaru BRZ — model years, key types, and the transponder/immobilizer each generation uses. Boundary years can overlap; we confirm the exact part by VIN before dispatching.

Security System & Immobilizer

Subaru moved through 4D62 and G-chip transponders to H-chip keys and proximity smart fobs.

On the BRZ specifically we see: DST-4D “G” board (Texas), 8A / DST-AES. A correctly cut but unprogrammed key turns the locks and never starts the engine — programming is the half of the job that matters.

Which key does your year have?

  • 2013–2020: Smart proximity (Toyota 86/Scion FR-S shared) — DST-4D “G” board (Texas) (TOY43/TOY48 (Toyota keyway))
  • 2022–2024: Smart proximity (Toyota GR86 shared) — 8A / DST-AES (TOY48 emergency insert)

Subaru BRZ Key FAQ

I lost the only key to my BRZ. What now?

We come to the vehicle, verify ownership, cut a new key from the VIN, and program it on-site — no tow, no dealer wait.

My BRZ is push-to-start — can you program that outside the dealer?

Yes. Late models (2022–2024) use a proximity smart key on 8A / DST-AES — we carry the fobs and the programmer, and we cut the emergency blade.

How fast can you reach my BRZ in DFW?
