Probably TRD parts for me - they always look closer to stock while giving similar performance benefits.
...And I've always liked the brand!

Seeing some of the aftermarket stuff for the WRX/STI and such there are great products and some not so great ones; I'd do some research before choosing obviously but I'd go with whichever has the best reviews and performance (no ebay shiz for this car)

I always do my research before i buy stuff im not sticking on one name but I always like TRD Japan stuff...FYI most critical parts on my AE86 are TRD Japan products so cant say any wrong with them.

TRD for me, as i'll likely just have the dealer install them when i purchase the car. TRD struts and springs, short shifter, cat-back. and we'll see what wheel options they come up with.

[QUOTE=NESW20;26965]i did that in purple because purple is a LIAR. are you in any way familiar with the TRD supercharger kits for the 3.4L V6, the 4.0L V6, and the 5.7L V8??? they are far from weak, i assure you.
I guess I never worked on those engines but for my celica,solara,scion tc the sportier cars oof toyota just get junk |

As Mata said, it's TRD USA which has the bunk parts and are usually way overpriced compared to the other aftermarket products. Unless you plan to add TRD floormats, a TRD shiftknob, TRD gas and oil cap and TRD matching window stickers, it's up to you but you'll look like a poser!
