Start of the build
 

Hello there everyone, I'm new to the forum and I just got my first subaru ever. I've had this BRZ for about 3 weeks now and I already got big goals for it. I was hoping that maybe I could get some suggestions on brand parts I should look at and what you think should go first. I know I plan on getting a new intake, exhaust, headers, sparks, wiring, possibly suspension, a turbo down the line, and and an accessport. What do you think? Suggestions welcome!

Good plan! There's a lot of us guys on here who've had the situation to decide on one thing or another, so if you got any questions feel free to ask.

Welcome!

We don't have accessport, but look into OpenFlash Tablet. Welcome to the club :)

Sparks and wiring meaning what? Spark plugs are not needed at all until you reach whatever millage the manual states they should be replaced, not sure what you mean by wiring? Cobb accessport is irrelevant for these cars, you would be looking at an Open Flash Tablet for the BRZ. Other that that the other stuff is covered pretty well in the appropriate sections of the forums for every option you could possibly imagine!

Welcome

Welcome! Glad to have you on board.
If you want maximum fun just take the stock car to an autocross, it's a blast. These cars really don't need much changed to be a lot of fun but if you want suggestions:
Getting some decent tires is a good idea.
Aftermarket intakes have very little gains power wise vs a drop in filter and a little modification to the OEM snorkel.
You can see decent gains with headers/exhaust and a tune.
For tuning OpenFlashTablet is the way to go unless you will be going FI, in which case Ecutec is what you want.
Single best mod for power seems to be running E85, even on an otherwise stock car.
There's lots of good info here on all that and more if you know how to use the Google.

We'll I've figured out what exhaust, springs, wheels, and body kit I want. Looking at headers and some other things now!

Well...? Details man! Which kind of exhaust, what brand? What body kit? What wheels?! Springs or coilovers?!

Haha sorry, I'm going for the HKS hi-performance spec L exhaust. I really like the wide body gt500 body kit. te37 are the long goal but the short goal ones are square g8's. Enkei progressive springs. Also liking the valenti, buddy club, and the spyder tail lights. My only problem with doing the performance parts is my warranty. Little on the edge with cutting my warranty especially with how new it is, but I'll probably just go for it and save the more intense engine stuff for later.

Nice! looking forward to see the results.

Should have the exhaust, springs, and wheels by this christmas. Although I'm going to be leaving to join the air force pretty soon so idk how fast you guys would see haha!

Gave it a bath today!
