Nice list. Never heard of those wheels before, so I googled--very nice!
My suggestion at this point would honestly be suspension! Many people totally ignore the "feel" aspect of the car and focus on the power. I think you'd be *amazed* at what some swaybars/endlinks alone would do. Personally, i havent managed to do any bushing upgrades, but I hear great things about things like shifter and steering bushings, engine mounts, not to mention actual suspension bushings.
Anyways, I'd love to see some pics!

Yup. Prodrive wheels are made in Japan. And most of them are forged.
I'm seriously considering suspension upgrade on my STI. But at a lost on where to start... swaybars, endlinks, bushings, coil overs, etc.
Meanwhile, here are some pics of my ride...

Swaybars and endlinks are a phenomenal place to start. They have virtually 0 effect on straight line driving and "harshness", but dramatically affect handling in corners. Plus, they're one of the cheapest performance things you can do.
Absolutely. Sways and endlinks :subaru:
...best bang for the buck.
