When my BRZ finally arrives, one of the first things will be to replace the stock rubber bushings with SuperPro bushings. The difference in feel between these and, even new, rubber bushings is big. The way these bushings seem to make the steering come more alive is quite astounding IMO.
Having tried various brands of polyurethane bushings in my previous Impreza and Golf, I found most PU to add too much noise and make the car feel harsh. The SuperPro bushings seem to be quite different. I found no real change in noise or harshness, just more 'feel'.

The second mod will be adjustable swaybars to allow me to fine-tune the handling balance to my personal taste. Don't know which brand though....

My local dealer, 90 Kms away, doesn't mind these modifications and will honour normal warranty. Or, at least he did with my Impreza.
