If you have the normal BRZ and not the one with the performance package, then yes there is considerable difference. Different shocks by Sachs and a bit stiffer springs. The springs should not be confused with the JDM STI ones which offer a 15mm height reduction. An additional bracing in the tS like the flexible v-bars and the draw stiffeners help too. If you liked the tS suspension, then go for it. Subaru made an extensive research on it and they said that it outperforms even the previous generation JDM tS suspension which was a custom made Bilstein yellow.
