What would be great is some pre and post traction mod videos, data-logs, lap times.

What about a stock BRZ with camber bolt? I'd like to be able to step on the gas earlier, but don't want the rear to be too soft as the car is already prone to understeer...

Yeah knowing how fast you enter and exit pre and post would help too. Looks good though. I'm assuming the dot on the left indicates where you have applied full throttle in the corner?

From those logs and description of extra stability & ability to open throttle sooner in curve .. that sounds exactly what i got with slight toe-in in rear. BUT! Our cars have toe adjustability as stock, and that doesn't need any extra parts, one can just ask to deal in when doing alignment. About the only thing that this mod might be better for in my eyes is that not-0 toe increases tire wear.

The dot is full throttle. There's a million ways to fudge data but it does correlate with what I've been saying. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

That's a gross simplification of something that is different. A bit like saying you don't need coilovers if you've got a camber bolt. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Last edited by 86•BRZ; 12-08-2016 at 12:48 AM. |

Any one know how much this lowers the rear of the car?

It doesn't, it just changes one of the pickup points to reduce rear anti-squat.

You sure? There are control arms from different manufacturers that have two sets of holes where they attach to the chassis. One set for factory height, one for a 15mm drop. How would changing the pick up point be any different than that? Also, one user already mentioned he had to raise his rear after install...
