How do you mention keeping the price down and a BOV in the same paragraph?

Just Kidding.

How much do you want to spend? I think this knowledge would make it much easier to give suggestions.

Just a suggestion.

BOVs are a worthless upgrade for our cars so stay away from that.

I would check out the STi scoop with splitter, the end links would be a good way to go. Maybe you could get him some nice new wheels (maybe partner with mom) or maybe get some wheels for him on your own and have mom or someone else buy the tires. If you don't mind going used, you can find some sweet deals - I got my wheels ($600 online) for $250 off this site.

good luck.

And while you're at it, I could use some new springs. I'll give you my address if you want to buy them and have them shipped to my place!

I think prodrive makes some springs that are designed specifically for use with the stock shocks. About $250 I think - you'd have to verify the price for these.

WOW....your dad has alot of stuff for his car already...Not sure what else you can find for $250 or less. What about a boost controller, samco/perrin intercooler hoses or an up-pipe/down pipe? Not sure if your dad are into "Transformers", if he is, you can get him the Transformers WRX toy (about $60 for the Die cast metal one from www.bigbadtoystore.com

any ideas now??
I've seen your dads car - his gauge installation is KICK ***. S^2 did a great job.

How's this:

1. Maybe the self dimming compass mirror from Subaru
2. Color matched Side-skirts Go here ($247.65)
3. Call up the guys at S-Squared and have them help you find a way to spend your money. I'm sure they'd be more than willing
