The new BRZ/gr86 has been fine for us with our oil baffles. And we are using 120tw tires as well. And if you are changing the suspension anyways. Gr86 and Br86 has barely any difference. The only difference is cosmetics and the gauge cluster the gr86 has the better one. Myself I would personally choose the GR86 just cause of the cluster.

What aftermarket suspension are you guys (or general public) running?

Huge power and huge torque on a short RWD wheelbase is super fun for hooning and giggles, but too snappy for much else.

We are running Extend Coilover

As others have mentioned, I think its probably a better idea to buy a stock BRZ. These cars seem especially popular among the younger ricer crowd. Crappy mods that are revertible are one thing, but young people aren't known to drive their cars with a ton of care.

I've had my late 2013 since new and put a hard 120,000km on it with sticky tires. I hoon it pretty good in the rain/snow/industrial parks.

Car has given me zero issues. My friend also got one the exact same time as me, no problems also.

Rmr, the ppl with no problems aren't going to write about it on the internet.

TIL that trollface has an FRS

Wow! All perspective when someone says they don't have a nice car I guess.
