Are your options one if the above , ie. Just, engine, or just suspension , just brakes? Or is it all of the above against not doing anything at all?
I am a sucker for performance over exterior looks tbh. Forget about all the exterior bling , lips etc, put your Money into performance mods and brakes first, how much is a vf52 now days? You should check out the new line of BBK blue billet wheel turbos from pro speed racing, they come on boost quite early and are good for 260~ awkw as one was tuned at MSR recently. Give Micheal a call about it all. GL , fun times ahead. :)

Do everything :D :D

i dont have any knowledge about performance stuff, sorry. haha

ipad integration sounds interesting, not the sort of thing id pursue but keep us posted regardless

rims...if youre going for 20" chromies, just be warned some people on here will not be so kind towards you :lol:
but you said rota and i dont think they do chrome so should be good :)
with 20"... im pretty sure youll need guards rolled especially with coilovers
any reason for 20s as opposed to 19s? just wondering, thats all.

and in my opinion with the carbon stuff (mirrors, grille, eyelids like you mentioned)...what colour is your car? i think depending on the colour, it can either work really well, or partly against it....

I have a VF52 on my Foz. Its good stuff, but your Lib should have a VF42?? which can be tuned for close to 200kw at the wheels, about as much as the standard bottom end can handle.
Stopping is not optional!

That entire list seems pretty sensible to me bar the 20" rims. ;)

I prefer the Hyperflow TMIC personally after seeing both.

Do it all. :D

Cheers guys yeah i know how u feel about 20s but I don't want silly looking chrome ones. They will look great tucked under the guards of the wagon with coilovers I reckon. The vf52 no good??

If you want a pretty mean looking TMIC you could get the ProcessWest Top Mount.

Just had the WRX 08-11 STI TMIC made by ProcessWest installed, it's a direct bolt on to our libs and is massive! Only downside is you can't run the full Subaru engine cover...
