@aucky definitely look into BC coilovers. I did quite a bit of research before I got them and rate them pretty highly. Teins was too low for my liking and handling was shocking. Having fun now . Brakes wise I went with mtec discs which was a good price with yellow stuff pads all round. Changed the brake fluid to motal dot 4 and brake lines. Enough stopping power for what I need. Mines is currently stock performance with k&n panel filter. Looking for performance parts. Was looking into long life exhaust in Stockport. Would you recommend? Also who would you recommend for remap? What other performance parts would you recommend? Looking to get 270-280bhp. Any help would be great as you don't see many posts with wrx hatch mods and came across yourself. Thanks
