what about adding front strut bars and changing to aftermarket diagonal brace? worth it or pampaganda lang sila ng engine bay?
@pcuerpo, 25mm front and 19mm rear is aggressive and very stiff even for frequent track use. Coupled with the staggered set-up that you already have, this would equate to a lot of understeer. As reference the TRD sway bars which were tuned specifically for the 86 have 15mm rear (+1mm from stock) and 17mm front (-1mm from stock).

The chassis of the 86/BRZ is already very stiff with the stock front tower braces. Aftermarket strut tower bars will help minimally since our cars really don't make enough power to overcome the chassis.
