Did you get a warning light when you swapped to the SPGs?

Damn that car looks good! Any special trickery involved in fitting those Recaros? I have an SPG that I'm thinking of fitting to the BRZ for track days (I don't think I can fit well with a helmet on otherwise).

We are using the Nagisa rails. This make the seat sit super low. Lower then the other ones out there.

Nice to know you can fit the 57xtreme in a square 9.5" setup. How much clearance is there on the suspension side?

They are 255/35/18. You only wanna run the 265 on a 10" wheel because the side wall will flex too much on the track.

Thanks, yours is the first setup i've seen with 9.5" all round not using 225's or something silly like that

What about clearance particularly at the front. How much of a drop have you gone. Do you need to run aggressive camber or any mods to not rub?
