Here is a thread on the STI forums for the hiccup.

Here is a thread on idle dips as well FYI. Part of why I say this is normal, unless your car is violently shaking and throwing CEL's.

No hiccups on any kind on any mine but I'm a maintenance freak and ocd about every mod. I have group n mounts and stiffer depending on which one of my cars we are talking about. Never hunted on iwsti or nasioc for the issue but guess I should check it out just in case. I know idle dips are normal (usually once you start to mod them) but its not good that my brz has almost died out from it a number of times now and probably would have if I hadn't fleathered the gas.
