WHAT DID YOU DO TO YOUR BRZ TODAY? - Page 953 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Finished installing my Ohlins today. Well worth the cost, they ride similarly to stock though more controlled feeling (even with the damping turned WAY down, 15 of 20 clicks F/R), but spring rates that are significantly stiffer.

Would love to see it but I don't think it's been done.

Took some pics and played with my alignment. My car is filthy as it's been raining for something like ten days straight and it was too cold to bother washing it today, sorry

Alignment specs right now are -2.6* camber up front and -1.9* in the rear. 1/32" of toe in front/rear (wandered too much on my winter tires with 0 toe). The front has settled to 25 1/8" fender to ground, rear is 25 1/2". I think I'll raise the front a bit to 25 1/4" after it finishes settling 100%.

I was at 15 clicks on the coilovers, I set to 12/13 front/rear. That seemed to get rid of a bit of the choppiness over little bumps, the Ohlins ride a lot like stock, but a bit more controlled. They definitely have less travel though, which sucks on crappy Pennsylvania roads.

Put on the winter wheels and weathertech floor mats, changed the engine air filter and cabin filter.

Because the pipe is hot and is in contact with the hood liner.

And I have some leftover of Dynamat after covering the interior, so I put them under the hood liner.
