All-Round Mods

I had the Swift BRZ spec springs on mine and put the Bilstein HD on the rear since i had a shock blow. It wasn't low enough so i went with some ST coilovers, it still rides pretty well but even with just the Bilstein rears i think the handling was actually better than with these coilovers. I probably should have installed the HD fronts too and just dealt with the higher ride height. I'm considering going to the Bilstein B14 PSS sometime down the road to get back in to a Bilstein damper.

My MY15 BRZ rides quite nice provided I stay on top of my tire pressures and am still completely stock on the 17x7 wheels.

Things I'm considering for improving ride would be a lighter set of wheels, but going to 225 tyres with a softer compound / side walls. After seeing how that goes I'm might look to a set of coliovers however I'm not interested in a drop in ride height. If I can't avoid a small drop then no more than 1 or 2cm at the most or no dice.

The car came from the factory really low to start with and I have really enjoyed simply driving the car and not needing to take any more than rudimentary care with drive ways and speed humps.

My experiences match Mim's. So much so, that after the harsh ride of my 2013 BRZ (11/12 delivery), on my 2015 (3/15 delivery) I'm adding a camber adjustment front and rear, bushing add-ons similar to RCE's bushing kit.

Then I'm focusing on engine tune ACE type A 350 plus delicious tune, tires on OEM rims, and OEM brake street focused improvements.
