I'd like:

Engine: 20-30 more HP. Preferably evenly across the RPM range so that applying mid corner throttle is as least unsettling as possible. FI is unnecessary. A more outspoken exhaust would be a nice touch as well.

Suspension: At the least, 30-50% stiffer springs and appropriately increased dampening. Larger sway bars as well, but not overkill. Probably in the 20mm area. Bonus for adjustable shocks. Double bonus for coilovers.

Wheels: 17 or 18 X 8.5 forged aluminum wheels in the 15-16lb range on grippy summer tires. 245/45/17 or 245/40/18 summer tires. Would be nice to see Dunlop Direzza Z1 Star Specs.

Aero: FUNCTIONAL front lip spoiler, rear diffuser, and a mildly adjustable rear wing would be nice. Bonus if the rear wing didn't perfectly block the view out of the rear window.


I think that kit would be rather effective and give the BRZ a nice performance bump at a fair price. (Not including coilovers, just reworked springs/shocks) Probably around another $3500.
