They will not want to undermine new WRX sales until they see how it sells, if WRX is a flop then maybe an updated BRZ/86 might come out earlier, if Toyota approves 
Either way as Shiv's points out it will probably have same/similar ECU so current hardware will be able to interface with it. |
Within the next year Toyo will have no say in what Suby does with their version and likewise Suby to Toyo version, so you can prob expect to see some form of STI BRZ/ TRD FRS here in the US. The two companies basically made a pact that the 2 versions would stay pretty much in and out mechanically identical for the first 2 full years of production/sales, after which the chains come off.
P.S. The BRZ is aimed at a completely different demographic than the WRX, so that's def no bearing on the decision. From a business standpoint, there's no way they would price point 2 vehicles the same that were aimed at the same demo.
