@KraftWerks do you have any pics of the shop BRZ with these installed?

Shouldn't be! Please let us know any and all feedback once you get the chance to install and get a feel for em!

Getting ready to install these today! I'm pretty excited

Edit :
Finished installing them using the "simpler Springs install guide" on the forums. So far very happy. I'll try and do a full review once the springs settle and I can do more driving with them!

How does fitting stiffer springs allow one to stop quicker?

With stock springs, the car essentially nose dives during hard braking. This puts the majority of the load on the front brakes with minimal distribution for the rear.

With a progressive rate spring, you have a better transfer of weight during those hard braking situations allowing a better disbursement of vehicle load to stop more efficiently.

Late post reply! Had these on for a few weeks now and you will not be disappointed. Perfect drop with 18 inch wheels. Stiff ride but not harsh. They are the best quality springs for the money. Here is a drop

Please elaborate more on "stiff" ride. Compare them to stock, how they feel on the street/highway, taking turns, etc. Do you hear any noises that are abnormal when driving, hitting a pot hole, taking a turn?

By stiff I mean, I feel more bumps in the road.. but its not uncomfortable. car feels tighter. going around turns it handles like a dream. No weird noises at all.
