Welcome mate

stock wrx/sti handle like shit all you hear is the front tyre scretching
you car might push 300hp but if it understeer into every corner you will get a slower times than someone who has 240hp with good suspension components - in my case get bulk oversteer :P

Get F+R swaybars/links/mounts/anti lift kit - EvoR can do a bundle http://www.perth-wrx.com/vb/evolutio...g-springs.html
Get 2nd hand turbo back zort from net or from wreckers like JWS
Get a good panel filter like apexi with stock airbox and resonectomy mod
Verso tune $990 drive in drive out and up the boost

then maybe change the front pads to something like QFM or ferodo and the disc to DBA or protex and some good quality brake fluid should do for now haha

Personally, I'd be going down this path:

Ultrex/Dylan-spec TBE - $600
Verso Tune - $990
Whiteline Swaybars - $600
HSD Coilovers - $1149 or $1349

edit: You'll have plenty of time to save the extra for the coilovers as stock is very slow coming through to Joe atm!

Welcome mate, lots of good input and knowledge here. Try and get to a couple of events and official cruises as you will see what combos work well
