To meet injury ratings. The criteria for the tests fills a couple of large books. I have never been able to find the requirements and limits on the internet. It is all made very basic. There are hundreds of required limits for just about every single section of the car. It is crazy to try to read through.

I would buy a BRZ if I wrecked the FRS. Probably a zenki still though because I hate steering wheel controls. Quote:

WRX seating position isn't that bad if you're used to driving the usual sedan and commuter vehicle. It's coming from an 86 or similar vehicles where it seems like crap. When I was looking for different vehicles and test driving everything the one I really didn't like the seats in was the Focus/Fiesta ST. For me that was worse than the positioning in the WRX.

I totally know what you mean by pedal position... it’s so weird position. From 86/BRZ owner point of view. Interesting that you gonna keep it in Zenki instead of Kouki. But I do understand what you mean by steering wheel controls. Quote:
Haha maybe, but now I’m used to very sporty low seating from 86/BRZ. Now I have these seats, it’s not helping lol Also previously, I had Impreza coupe, so it doesn’t help at all w new WRX |
