When you say 28% and 30% stiffer, your basing that off stock BRZ spring rates or FRS spring rates?

I love the drop these offer, I just want to make sure they don't induce any understeer

BRZ. Trust me, they will not induce understeer. (What the hell? You'd think I'd design special Understeer Springs?)

I can't speak for ALL our customers, but we have heard no complaints of this, and our own shop car is now at 12,000 miles on our springs, with no shock issues.

Hah! Like, none. The springs went on less than a month after we bought the car.

Did you know? A one-ounce American Eagle gold coin (minted by the U.S. Mint) has a face value of $50, but will cost you $1575 to buy today.

Did you know? The deepest cave in the world is Krubera Cave in Georgia (Russia). It is about 7200 feet deep -- more than 1.3 miles!

Sorry, I forget. Maybe -1.75 degrees? Nothing extreme.

Did you know? The hedgehog has been basically the same animal for the last 15 million years. A group of hedgehogs is called an array or a prickle.

I use that phrase to mean "Solid." or "That's so solid." Like in Undercover Brother.


I've always wanted these springs. Just gotta figure out where they fit in my mod list. I might snag them before I drive away from Alaska in May of 2015, or just wait until I get to where I'm going.

First World Problems.
