My FRS wasn't pushy, but there wasn't much in the way of rotation. And still isn't.
All true, but I don't think our alignment was exactly the same at the time. (I had a fair amount of rear toe in, but I'm now running less. Not that you would expect loose from more toe in, but I might have been excessive.)

I felt all last year that the 20mm Cusco was not quite enough, even on the 'pushier' BRZ. I kept it in the garage for fear the Strano bar would be too stiff, but I have no plans on changing back as the Strano bar feels pretty good to me and Sam was able to turn some pretty good times with the setup that is on the car now.

The final answer is probably a bit driver dependent, ymmv, etc.
