Sounds like a good plan. I'm using the summers from my old FR-S on the current BRZ (1st gen) and I'll be interested to see if they could be reused on the new gen just as you're intending. They're...

Congrats! :burnrubber:

Do you think the improved responsiveness you're feeling is due to the bump in torque? Are you planning on getting a summer set of wheels or keep on swapping tires back and...

Nice! I've got a zero-pressure version of those on the Vette, although I must confess I'm keeping an eye out for something stickier for autox. The big size in the back is tough to find.

That's one of the reasons I bought an FR-S in 2012 instead of a BRZ. Red was not available on the Subaru at that time. At least, not in Canada. I think it was available in the States in 2012 though....

One of the reasons I picked up a 1st gen BRZ this summer was because I was afraid that Toyota would screw up the replacement's design the way they've done with some other models recently.
