I believe that you need now better tires and make the rear a bit stiffer. When I installed the strut bar, I noticed sometimes the rear going a bit sidewise. I managed to fix this after installing a bigger bolt and an additional stopper in the rear subframe.

Now I feel that my car needs a bit of dialing again in the front. Welcome to the tuning world . I believe I'll manage this with the longer steering gear bolts. I haven't installed them yet, but I heard that they make also a bit stiffer the front frame. Not too much, but as I said it doesn't need a lot in front.

Regarding the flexible draw stiffener, I don't have an experience in the BRZ. However, I installed once a similar component to my Forester and I couldn't tell any difference. I am sure that you will feel an improvement in the BRZ, but not as massive as other parts. For the time being I want to spend my money to other improvements like exhaust etc.

This was ridiculously helpful. I was thinking either to get the v-brace and draw stiffener or save longer for some lighter wheels instead. The further complication is I don't want to change the tyres out till they are worn out.

Arrrggg welcome to first world problems.
