To be clear, you don't mean running 2hz front and rear right? I'd set the rear a bit softer, like 1.8hz-ish if the front is 2hz. But yeah that's not a terrible place to have a car with no aero, definitely some room to grow with smaller aero bits as well.

FR cars making bigger power wanna be softer in the rear (ha!) I would think. I think there's a fairly broad workable range. I'm at 1.7Hz front 1.6Hz rear on my daily-driver + track BRZ, pretty OK with it as a compromise setup... |

My Flex Zs are 6k squared so a little over 2hz front and 1.85hz rear by my calculation. It's a dual duty as well--mostly street--and works fine, even though the Atlanta roads are hell on my car lol.

Stock suspensions are bullshit compared to something like Bilstein. Coilovers are much better, and mine is a street coilover. |

Bear in mind I replaced my Ohlins for the tS MY18 suspension and if I'll change again in the future shocks I may try the B6 ones but not coilovers. They have nothing more to offer me except complexity, reduced suspension travel (our B roads are full of potholes) and increased NVH from the solid top mounts, nor I want to change often settings. As you know I have the tS complete car setup as I changed everything from it (except VSC ECU which when turned off is the same with mine ). That's my opinion of course as I believe in the homogeneity a tS car has and the time for R&D factory spent on this. PS:I don't know what you mean by "the front of my car runs on bump stops", our REARS use often the bump stops as part of the suspension (MX5 and some more cars do the same) not the fronts or at least not more than every other Subaru or other car...except you mean the hydraulic bump stops that many coilovers have. |
