So I read lots of reviews and watched lots of videos.
From my understanding is that the main difference is the suspension:
1- steel knuckle for 86 vs aluminum for brz
2- sway bar for 86 is solid vs hollow for brz
3 the rear sway bar is mounted to the subframe for 86 vs chassis for brz (This is quite interesting because unibody do not have subframes . Sometime they would have a subframe that is mounted to the unibody chasis for the engine compartment and not the rear of the car. So I really do not understand this one. Any experts please shed the lights.
4- ECU changes for 86 (not clear)
5- front grill.
These are the main differences. So Any expert who test drove both , please shed a light to what these changes for the 86 equate to in driving. I though the 86 steering would be a little more stiffer than the brz. But from one video it seems it is not.
