I also agree with krikov that the old carbon fiber seats were much more bad ***. Im NOT a fan of leather and those carbon ones would hold you in much more snug due to the material alone (no sliding around).
I was looking at this picture and was like "why the hell is the master cylinder on the wrong side? Then I realized it was JDM only... But at the same time, what's that heat shield piece right below the throttle body on the intake manifold? That aluminum piece.
I still don't understand why it has flexible strut bars... Isn't the purpose of having a strut bar to stiffen the area where the bar is attached to, like the struts being connected by a stiff bar to reduce flexing? So why does the bar flex?

I know only like 4 out of 100 people will do something to upgrade their seats which is a shame since its the best mod you can do for your car, but thats why Subaru doesn't offer it as an option because they'd charge like $5,000 for the seats because ANYTHING STi is expensive as hell.
