You can use most any coilover in the softer positions, the issue is at the stiffer adjustments you risk binding the endlinks, endlink contacting strut body, or the swaybar arm contacting the LCA....

Bilstein B6 mounting points lined up with OEM when I checked.

I swear someone is using RCE T2s with the Karcepts front bar but I definitely could be wrong.

Did they flash the ECU last time? Mine is a '17 and that was part of the TSB for the '17s. Not sure about the later models.

It's possible that they may not have gotten all of the valve adjusted...

Do Bilstein B6s work better than the OEM tS Sachs (MY18) with the tS pink springs?
I have read for some reason front springs on B6 sit higher so car has height difference, is it right?

BRZ Reveal

Looks extremely ugly. Too many cutouts, bulges, and bumps. 228 HP and a more aggressive track mode should make it fun at autocross though.

I wish I could drive all versions to comment better, but I can still share the outcomes.

The 3 twin photos I posted can show you the ride height differences.

I keep seeing this line of reasoning, and I find it a bit ridiculous. I.e., 240hp "wouldn't be enough", therefore 205 is "fine". There's no defined line of what is "enough" and if there was it...

Forgot to add btw, these cars don't have the modern Saaaaaaafety features like ASS (auto stop start), Blind spot, lane keep, etc.

Basically, last of the real old school cars, and I like it that way

Size restrictions I get but does an engine really go to shit and start polluting at 30k? Seems more like a money grab to me.
