Which car mods would you not be without?
 

Write down which mods you enjoy the most on your car, that you wouldn’t be without!

Could be one or a few.

Myself I wouldn’t be without the UEL header, open flash tune (modified) and Perrin 3” intake.

Car is much more responsive and enjoyable now with the torque dip practically gone as well. Would never go back to stock, the car is not enjoyable with the torque dip..

Auto dimming mirror, wheels and tires, HID headlights (should be standard FFS), and exhaust is a must.

UEL and tune for sure; it makes the whole experience much better. another mod, though small, is a back-up camera. I never thought it would be so useful. After driving cars without it, I always feel so uncertain when backing up now lol (I still use my mirrors to check when reversing into spots, but the camera is just so useful to double check everything).

My hands.

Tires as a minimum. Not having a catback also sucks. I hate quiet cars.

Eh, I like my frameless mirror too much, but auto dimming is kinda cool too. Tires is easily the best mod I've done. And HID's, heated mirrors, and dual zone climate control is why I went with a BRZ (plus being able to haggle on price, slightly better resale and I like the looks and color better).

My current exhaust setup is too loud on the highway so I don't take trips in it at all anymore, so exhaust is very subjective.

Yep, again, tires. While the stockers were good, the MPSS are sooooooo much better.

I haven't done much, but I think convex side view mirrors are a must.

Wheels, tires and exhaust.

If the car does not ship from the factory with one Spuds, does that make me a mod? Because if so, I'm not sure I could be without myself. ... Is that an existential question? Oops, wrong thread.


I guess if I can't count myself, then my oft would be it. Wish I had gotten it sooner.

1. UEL+Tune+ 4.56+ (LSD)
2. Backup Camera
3. Better HeadUnit
4. Tires
5. Brighter Reverse and Interior lights

In order of importance

1. Aluminium drive shaft + Cusco 4.556 FD (would do this in the first month every time)
2. Full stereo rip out and upgrade (head unit, amp, sub, speakers)
3. Street oriented suspension + bracing (massively improved ride and handling)

Dress up bling bits aside, those main ones went the extra distance in the enjoyment of my daily driver.

Even better, my auto dimming mirror is frameless :thumbup:

Looking back, I should have considered the BRZ more. I pretty much decided Toyota for the front fascia and my belief that this was Toyoda's brain-child, so it deserved to be bought as a Toyota (or Scion in my case, but same thing)

While they are cool and easy, you can save the money if you learn how to properly set your stock mirrors. I have no issue seeing behind me (no blindspots) with the stock mirrors.

- Exhaust (Stock is too quiet)
- DAMD steering wheel (Stock is kinda too large and skinny for my liking. It's the only part of the car you're touching 100% of the time, so how it feels is important to me)
- SRP gas pedal (Makes heel-and-toe so much easier)
- Wider wheels/tires (More grip)
- Coilovers (Stock has a little more body roll than I'd like and not enough front camber)

I agree - headers + tune are a must (& I recommend to every owner who asks me).

I also did a FF tune at the same time - and while the e85 is fun + a bit more power, it's really the lack of the torque dip from the headers and tune that made the car so much better day-to-day.

I also love my Valenti tail lights :)
