I have no idea who in town would have wheel spacers. Probably want to check with @Stav and see what JRP has.

Cannot fit your new wheels without spacers or what? are they even 5x100 or do you need a conversion spacer?

DIY for torque eh?

Do you have a Tune yet? That would be the number 1 and would do the MOST. Those Crawford power blocks would also do wonders for ya and can be done yourself.

A header or an over pipe (think you have an over pipe already)...maybe a light weight pulley

Unless something is messed up on your car there should be no issues with the lower control arms. I ran this identical setup as you know. I simply ran -2 camber for proper clearance with the fender.

Tons of people are running 18x9.5 +38

Yeah I'll be doing the power blocks on my end, just need to finish installing my others parts first. Any mods that will net me a little more power are welcome as I have decided against F1 for now

It's not that, I may have a solid lead on some dilithium crystals to power my BRZ

Mmmm I think I will put my Brembo's on this weekend...cause racecar

lol jk. But my father got the stripped bleeder plug out of my one Brembo so with that done, it is time to unbolt the factory brakes and put on my big boy rotors! I am hyped.

Probably a good thing, because I wouldn't mind a LITTLE bit more stopping power (I know, lighter rims and better tires...one day)

500 for spacers?

Or do you need chamber bolts, spacers, new lugs, etc etc etc?
