ok, don't do the CF trunk/spoiler. that ruins the look of the car in my opinion. also, don't EVER do any of that sideskirt bullshit...... it's great for street looks, but you get on a dirt road/snow, and it blows.
the STI should already have the STI-RA gearset in it, which is pretty much the strongest gearset subaru produces.
interior mods look good. power mods look good. it should already be on the best STI suspension, so suspension upgrades aren't too important........
put a rear differential protector on it. it's like 70 bucks, but it'll keep shit from blowing up the rear diff.
if you've got the money, rally-armor the entire car. scratches, and rust = out of the question.
keep the BBS rims it comes with. they look sick.
put a thule ski rack on it, with the faring.
i think you said something about an exhaust...... wait a while on that. don't rice the thing out with a huge system..... STI's sound pretty good stock. instead, spend that money on a stereo system. or on a driving class....... i don't know how old you are, but a 2 day driving school course is a good investment.
buy yourself a SCCA membership....... and go RALLY!
