It will probably improve the steering center feel and initial turn-in I would imagine, and increase feedback when you corner hard.

If you are worried about increased NVH, then look into the STI flexible tower bar instead (it seems STI always push the flexible tower bar as the first mod or could be the only mod you should buy from them).

I want that wing, but not until I'm over 200WHP. I go fast.

Shit the STI filter looks stock (aside from some weird green rayon looking stuff on it). It's Made in China too. The stock filter is Toyota Denso Made in Japan. I guess you guys can skip this one lol!

Yeah, but does it say STI on it? That alone makes it worth it!

Stiff price for a... stiff part, amIrite?!

I'm glad there's nothing out that I MUST have from the tS cosmetically. All that's left for my wants are the stiffer mounts.

They need to stop teasing us and just give the dang BRZ STI Concept and BRZ GT300 fender garnishes, though. Would probably be $500, but I don't care! Must. Have. In. Life.

See what I don't understand is, if it is exactly the same part as stock, why go thru the trouble and create the STI part for it? Maybe there's a difference somewhere idk. If I examine them closely side by side, the hairy stuff on the STI one is green, while on the stock one it's white.

The STI radiator cap tho I like, it is made by Nippon Denso ("ND") so I know it's quality, pressure at 1.3 bar instead of 1.1 bar. Again it looks exactly the same as stock other than the pressure marking difference engraved onto the cap.

I'm with you on this one. The trd high flow filter is the same, it's just a red color. So it may be made different. This may be the same as the trd just not dyed red.

I don't think radiator caps really are suppose to look different from one another =P. As far as the filter goes, I think its continued proof that the stock intake design was as good as it can get.

So this pin stripe set is not made exclusively for the tS but for the normal BRZ too. I was wondering why they have it as an option for the Legacy.
