BRZ tS VDC - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

I don't know if this is the correct section...
Does anyone noticed if the tS VDC has a different behavior?
BRZ tS has a specific VDC ECU, but I don't know if it's just to adapt to different suspensions or if it's like more "sporty".
Many thanks!

Yes, it is different. Officially it was listed as a tuned vscs by STI. I vaugly remember the promo pdf materials having a graph plot showing higher tolerances. The specific chamges have never been posted.

Most have commented that is has higher threshold before t/c kicks in for the stiffer suspension.
There has been 1 member that did the module swap for track mode but, I cannot remember if that was to a 2017+ or tS part.

That's only for the Japanese market i think.

or they roll it into the update on later cars, but i don't think anyone can verify...

STi Sport JDM VDC ECU is the same of US tS model, it's different from Performance Package models and stock ones.
