This technology helps make handling more precise, while allowing you to push your vehicle closer to the limit. As you enter a corner and lateral
g-forces take hold, the system applies braking force to the inside front wheel to help you keep your intended line. This means your WRX or
WRX STI responds to your steering inputs more immediately and more engagingly.

Years of heated competition, extensive testing and advances in materials and engineering have been channeled
into the chassis designs for the WRX and WRX STI. Exceptional stability and lightning-quick response were central
to this development, as high-tensile steel was employed throughout the frame to increase its torsional rigidity and
better control the vehicle’s weight. What’s more, the suspension was performance-tuned with large stabilizers, stiff
spring-rates, and pillow ball bushings, all optimized for high-speed handling. This expertly balances stiffness and
compliance to create immediate response and an unprecedented connection between driver, car and the road.
