This thread has been derailed to be about boobs .. haha .. I guess what thread technically wouldn't if it has the chance ..
Also my girl is a bit shy and we should keep our eyes on the road right? :P but I'll probably swap out the shock and struts to the newer set if my current one goes bad

I am amazed at the number of people that have drove with the different suspensions under such controlled conditions that they can tell the difference. The changes are minuscule between all the models yet appear to have massive changes when measured on the titcur scale.

Yes. The ride is much more compliant. The OEMs also add a fatter rear sway bar ( a whole whopping +1mm) to counteract the slight increase in body roll in the corners too.

Shocks were the same between FRS and BRZ, springs were different.
Fairly noticeable step up in ride quality with the 2017+ shocks. The 2013s were a little rough especially, and I think 2015-2016 are OKAY. Quote:
