I have heard that there were new suspension changes for 2015. I have yet to find any good solid info so far. I keep coming across references to 2015's having Sachs dampers, or just different dampers.
I bought a full stock suspension from another member out of a 2015 Series Blue. These are Showa units, not Sachs. They do have a different part # than the 2013-2014. I pulled these part #'s off of the web:
SHOCK ABSORBER-REAR .
This genuine part fits your 2013 Subaru BRZ .
Stock Code 20365CA011 ; 20365CA010
SHOCK ABSORBER-REAR .
This genuine part fits your 2015 Subaru BRZ .
Stock Code 20365CA110
STRUT COMPLETE-FRONT LEFT .
This genuine part fits your 2015 Subaru BRZ .
Stock Code 20310CA130
STRUT COMPLETE-FRONT LEFT .
This genuine part fits your 2013 Subaru BRZ .
Stock Code 20310CA031 ; 20310CA030
The spring part #'s appear to be the same.
Anyways I am just throwing this out there for reference. I am pushing on 40,000 miles and figured a new setup out of a 2015 should be an improvement, although how much is yet to be seen.
I will post up my impressions after I put the 2015 stuff in. That won't be for a month or so though. I may wait until after my first track day of the year so I can have a good comparison.
Anyone actually seen any stock Sachs dampers in a US BRZ?

I finally got the 2015 suspension installed in my car last week. I have had a chance to put a few hundred miles on it now. All I have to say is. WOW, I cannot believe how nice the car rides now!
The main difference that I noticed is that I do not seem to harshly feel every single bump in the road like I did before. Perhaps they softened up the compression or something? The car feels simply a lot more composed and is not seem to get as upset over bumps.
The car definitely rides a lot nicer than with the 2013 suspension.
I have a track day on Monday so I will see how it really handles then. I do not suspect there will a big difference as far as that is concerned.
