Awesome. Glad youre here. First time on a forum and youre on igotasti. Fantastic news for you because this is literally the best forum i have ever come across. I spend all day every day on it cause its so amazing. Make sure you do your research and ask questions as far as the car goes. Ive made some mistakes in the past regarding the car and mods since i didnt have the knowledge, done the research, and sure as hell didnt have this forum for advice. Do it right the first time and youll have an amazing experience with your sti and the subaru community!!!! :bigtup:

^ All great advice! As to mods, you can never go wrong with sway bars. Personally, I think sway bars should be paired with new sway bar mounts and urethane bushings (to get the best performance and longevity), but that's not completely necessary. I firmly believe sway bars are one of the best, first mods you can do, besides an AP and a turboback exhaust.
Don't overlook good tires. Your choice of rubber can make a world of difference.
