They are grippier, but only marginally so. Being STI they're more of a street+ and they squeak haha. Still, they are great for backroads driving or some autoX.

Ohh niiicee. I will get them also )
STI also has drilled rotors to upgrade the OEM PP Brembos. But the set 2xF+2xR cost 1500euro before taxes. Too much.

I do want the STI rotors but damn they are pricy (and pretty useless for me daily driving).

Did you install the STI Flexible Draw Stiffener? I think 2nd gen has a solid member brace in same position. Probably to compensate the much stiffer rear chassis.

More Specials... and PP cars

Here's me and my BRZ buddies. Both are 2017's and have been doing many track days from day one and the engines have never faltered! Both are tuned to 190. We're in New England, but I'm from Dallas and used to race there.

So... a year ago, the Series.Yellowbird was sold. Some may be tracking, others not so much. Life happened, some more life happened, and I have a new car and other things. I decided to get a hatchback Corolla as they look stylish, and I can still get a manual. Picked up a 2021 for a stupid good deal and low miles. While I won't be using this thread to post about the car as it's not relevant, I figured I'd share what I've got now.
