Starter swap?

Hi everyone,
Have ever noticed how slow the start/first ignition on the FR-S/BRZ/GT86 is?
Everytime I fire up my GT86 I feel like I'm pushing the Ignition button of a diesel engine.

Is there any possible way to swap the starter to I fire up more quickly like more high-end sports cars? Do you have any reference of a replacement starter that could easily fit?

Thanks.
Wil

I'm getting 3-4 crank starts when it's 100f+ out with 90% humidity. It drives me nuts and it can be corrected with a better tune.
