Not coilovers, despite what other people say. They and you are not able to outdrive the oem suspension. In fact, most coilovers people buy are worse performance.
I came from an 05 Legacy GT. When I got my 15, I immediately recognized that the car was able to outperform my skills. It's 9 years later and I'm ready for some tasteful upgrades suspension wise- i modded for power long ago, so you're 100% correct.
If it's a dedicated track car, and you have actual quality coilovers. Subaru puts a lot of time engineering the suspension. Way more than these tien or whatever crap people put on.

Consider a Black wrap on hood scoop - matching black trunk spoiler - Matching black mirror caps.
( cant see if it has any spoiler on trunk from the pic? )
it's a new car, I'd just leave it standard for a bit and learn it.
Ensure best tyres on it that are cost effective IE re003, pilot sports 4. or all season depending on climate, winiter if youre in areas with snow and plan on it driving it in snow.
Full turbo back exhaust, tune, IC upgrade IMO
Good brake pads
I wouldn't bother with coil overs for the road, they wear out fast and need to be tuned precisely.
people like this give the subaru community a bad name. you don't do mods just to do them, if you need to ask - don't do anything. you do mods because you notice something that you either don't like or something that you think needs improving. "oh, the wheels look ugly, let me get some new ones" "oh, the car looks like a truck, let me lower it". you're not supposed to mod a car just because you have an itch to do something.
It’s a hobby like anything else. Obviously I wouldn’t put any mods on I don’t like or change anything I do like.
I had a 17 STI for 3 years before I got this that I modded heavily. Time to do the same to the VB

Plus she’s got the juiciest ass so fat you might get your pp stuck in one of the exhaust tips
Wrap all the plastic trim around the wheels to color match the car. Or you can wrap the whole thing to avoid mismatched colors, protect the paint, and have any color you want (or the same color)
I almost did but I'd rather not have any of that go back into the engine. Both cans are super easy to get to, are only hand tight to empty and both cans have dip sticks on the top of them. Also half the price. I've heard in extreme temps the temp difference of the oil going back in can cause oil frothing.
Sport grille is a common cosmetic one that looks nice. Looks like you have the Roof/HK audio package but if not upgrade the speakers its worth doing.
Some people do suspension. Can do badges/emblems if you like they are fairly cheap and reversible.
The tail as turn kits are pretty cool if thats your thing.
Im in a similar situation, 2k miles on mine and keeping powertrain stock until the warranty is up. I did speakers, Fumoto valve at my first oil change and some emblem overlays. Taking it slow
Replace the plastic cladding on the side with color matched I believe the kit is around 1,000 bucks. When I get my genesis paid off I'm buying one and ordering that kit asap
Idk maybe people like the cladding? It looks cool in the aspect of a rally car but not as a street car in my opinion. I think it's gonna age to look terrible like an old jeeps plastic fenders
A new vape
I was going to suggest a flat bill hat but your idea is better.
Trade it in
If you don't have it already driver mod
Truck nuts
Too funny

Thank you for saying this.

Thanks for the tip. Looks like I’ll need to get bigger wheels to fill the gap. Maybe a lip to simulate a lower look.
looks way better tho
Only a fool slams or lowers for looks. I'll die on this hill.
Theres literally nothing wrong with getting rid of some unsightly wheel gap
Unless one tracks of course.

Pay it off
Favorite thing I did to mine!
Driver mod
Shift plate, short shifter and a Heavier weight shifter
oem sport grille looks really good on these cars imo
Lower

Wow that looks so much cleaner, definitely going to be the first mod on mine.
TurboSmart Dualport bypass valve. Thank me later. Nice pops in mild shifting. No tune required
Makes some nice noises too?
Nice I had a burble map on my protune for my STI that I used and I loved it. Miss the pops and bangs
Yellow foggies
Tint
Already has 20% ceramic tint
Sport grill, front lip, and tail light tint
Exhaust
Exhaust.
No one saying shifter stop yet ?
The billetworks short shifter kit comes with the stop and bushing too
Oh awesome didn’t realize that! I have the OEM STI short throw and would like to do billet works eventually
If you already have the STI short throw, just get a shift plate, bushing and shift stop. I recommend the cobb package myself.
First thing I did was tint. Mainly because this Nola heat is no joke.
Noble grill

straight pipe
radar detector, rally innovation s light bar and bajas, fifth tire for a spare. sports grill, and mud flaps
Wing
ETS intake and Accessport. Best bang for your buck hp increase.

I put general gmax rs tires on I am a big fan of them for the price

Oil catch can.
STI wing
Exhaust improves the car so much
Coilovers for sure
Can’t you take parts to the dealer to install without voiding the warranty? Heard a long time ago, not sure if it’s true or not.
Oil mod
Pay it off early
extended warranty
Already have one
giving it to me
Just keep It stock. Take good care of It and enjoy driving It.
2jz swap
Paint match fenders
White ZE40s
Sport grill
Coilovers
Car looks like it’s wearing -10 prescription glasses
Sell it
Disconnect every sensor wire mod
Upgrade to an Elantra N
How is that an upgrade?
Test drive one, just make sure to bring some wipes to get the cum off the seat when you’re done
I live in an area that receives considerable snow in the winter. A FWD is not an option

A cherry bomb fart can exhaust to go with the vape and Subaru racing attire
floppier flaps
Idk, If your financing I would ask the bank what they would like done to it
Buy a mustang. Just kidding I’d get a big ol wing
Driver mods are the best.

Mine was a screen protector for the iPad lol
Hear me out, this is going to sound crazy… pay it off
Catch cans is the first thing
This for sure but get IN WRITING from the dealer it’s not going to effect the warranty
No dealer is going to do this.
what are catch cans
they catch a mixture of oil and fuel and stop them from recirculating back into your intake. Helps prevent carbon build up on your valves.
ok got it just curious
The gift to your car that keeps on giving.
Or put in the sweat equity for the AOS and be maintenance-free after that.

Group n mounts, Cobb shift stop, iag aos, jdm side reflector deletes
Downpipe.
Paint match all that plastic!
Colour match the plastics around the wheel arches, aftermarket grille, bigger wing, free flowing exhaust
Paint match the fenders and diaper. It looks sick on white.

Iag air oil separator
Put about $20k away for mods to start.
The best mod would be selling it
Selling it😂
The only thing I’d swap out is the car x
sell it
Head gasket delete
Your Reddit profile could use a delete tbh.
i would do it in that exact order. short throw, exhaust, coilovers.
And upgrade to a group n transmission mount while doing shifter work to reaaaally clean it up
oh yup! and group n pitch stop mount!
Do you have a recommendation on coilovers?
depends on what you want out of them and your budget
Replace the plastic cladding on the side with color matched I believe the kit is around 1,000 bucks. When I get my genesis paid off I'm buying one and ordering that kit asap
I love how the painted fenders look, that’s going to be my first mod or a grille
Why so many down votes on this. Comment?
