I wouldn't do that. You're not coming out ahead financially on that deal and it's cake to replace the springs on your car with the ones from the BRZ anyway.

I can't in good conscience recommend going cheap on tires, especially if you intend to track/auto-x the car. Go with the lightweight wheels and quality tires now.

Pretty much. And don't bother getting in the left lane, the right lane moves faster.

Also, proper following distance in NoVA is .5 car lengths. Any more, and someone will just fill that gap.

I actually really like the base head unit. It looks like something from a 90's Blaupunkt catalog, but that's perfect. 90's throwback stereo for a 90's throwback car.
