how ground clearance do you have? front? side?
Mine is 14 cm front, 13 cm side. (back is more than 16 cm)
It would be a tight squeeze under these ramps, but I suppose it would be possible. Better to raise it and put jack stand under it for more clearance. And I have not measured actual ground clearance, but I would guess about 50mm front and rear. So its pretty low right now

Thanks,
Rick

These would be good driving on in order to get a floor jack under the front of the car. I have a standard height BRZ with a lip on it, and I can't get my low-profile jack under the front bumper enough to reach the crossmember. I just wonder if these wouldn't just slide though in my garage.

I usually start with the jack in the trunk, then use my actual jack after I have it an extra couple inches up.

So Cosworth is apparently working on getting a smaller pulley for their supercharger. Do you have any thoughts on that? Maybe you know more than they've revealed?

I've been trying to get more info from them, and right now they have not officially released any information regarding that. I'll try to update as soon as we can.

I'm not going to lie, I miss driving this car. It's been in the showroom for far too long!
