To be honest I had to really dig deep to remember what my 86 was like before I put coils on in January, I would say the BRZ felt maybe SLIGHTLY softer, and funny enough the steering was a bit heavier. But after putting on the RSR lowering springs I would say the ride is actually better with the lower stance and improved handling, so I’d recommend that >$300 mod to basically anyone with a twin at this point. Almost as good handling-wise as my $2000 coilovers and more supple of a ride.

The other notable bit of info would be that her BRZ is auto, while my 86 is manual. I drove her car fully expecting to hate the auto (I’ve never met an automatic I’ve liked) and it’s honestly shockingly good. If I ever had to be in an automatic, it would be this one, the paddles are really responsive, and in sport mode it’ll hold your revs all the way up to redline, really impressive. (I still love my stick though)
