Well I finally trophied in the car at an SCCA event we had some out of town talent come in and knock me out of 2nd . I can tell from the video that i was being realllly aggressive and if i would have cleaned it up i could have shaved maybe a half second.[ame="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b6QCj8drvzo"]Chase Reeves #9 CS SCCA #2 3/3/15 - YouTube[/ame]

Also forgot to mention I got a killer deal on konis and installed those before the scca event. Car feels a bit stiffer and corners a lot flatter IMO

Coming Soon:

Koni Adjustable Struts (hopefully)

What do you think of the 20 mm Whiteline sway bar? Do you have issues with understeer on the BRZ?

Although, I have been doing well with the stock bar, I am considering going to a larger bar. However, was thinking of something with a lower spring rate than the 20 mm, like the 19 mm Perrin or Suspension Techniques, or the Strano bar.

I honestly love the bar it really balances the car perfectly for my liking. Even before the koni's with the bar set to soft it got rid of most of the oversteer. I drove an STU WRX before so I HATE understeer lol.

Sorry I have not updated this in quite a while! I have done and TON of autocrosses and even a track day in there too!

Enjoy.

It has obviously been way too long without an update so I will do my best to get caught up!

First and foremost the car is no longer CS legal yayyyyyy. I have installed the whiteline transmount insert as well as the rear subframe inserts. Both of which I can say make a huge difference and are well worth the money spent.

I also decided to balance out the car with adding the rear whiteline 16mm swaybar. I havnt had a chance to work out the settings but for now I am on a soft front bar and medium rear but that might be a little too much over steer.

I did sell the 17x7 to another local autocrosser so I can say they are going to a good home. I found an awesome deal on a set of wicked awesome 17x9's with 255 z2* which will hopefully be replaced with some better rubber soon.

I have seen a lot of track time since this last update and oo man is that addicting!

Lastly before the car left its CS form I was able to snag 3rd place overall in the texas region SCCA in my first full year of autocross.

Here are some videos of a few track days and various other things.
