Nice upgrade to the PIAA Ions, I'm running 9006 in my foglights, and I also have the Extreme White 168 leds for my parking lights and rear license plate light.

Did you have to paint the rear spats? or did they come in SWP? I'm upset with how little (havent found anything yet) that comes from japan which is SWP.

Yup it came pre-painted SWP! Just let them know and they have the option that you can chose what color you want if you order them at japanparts.com. It come with 2 in the same box so both SWP paint are perfectly match.

The fog light covers I got were in 2 boxes and it came out not match. One was whiter. Both of them are pre-painted SWP. :/

Got my AP last week didnt have time to post until now. Anyone drive a 07 should really get this first before anything else just like every one said. Thanks guys for helping me out on the AP questions.

Default Re: Seventy's 07 SWP STi - Need HElp choose the upgrade path!

Now I'm really having touble and dont know what I should get next. My money for next upgrade are around 700 dollars. Hope you guys can help me out and point me to the right path. Help me build my project!

A) Whiteline 27/24 Sways, Endlink (kartboy maybe) & Whiteline ALK

B) Coilover. Thinking about the Tanabe one. It is not adjustable accept the height. http://www.tanabe-usa.com/coilovers/s-oc.asp. I dont think I will go track so..... or should I save more and get those 1500+ adjustable? The Tanabe one are around 700 my price and is better than Tein basic haha but is around that type of entry level coilover Im guessing.

C) DP & Exhaust. This might be the best bet but than I'm upgrading to GT35R and the guy already told me I wront need that DP cause they have to custom one. So the downpipe will be a waste of money and need to be resell. Note that I got AP I can go Stage 2.

D) Screw everything and start getting my turbo upgrade stuff but they will be just sitting there for months until I'm ready for the turbo upgrade. Example like fuel pump, injectors, intercooler and all those other stuff. It wront be 700 dollars to get all that I needed tho haha.

Note:
Street car
Have AP
Will upgrade to GT35R


I know all those are kind of personal choices and it might need to be done soon or later but I like to hear from you guys first so any suggestion or ideas will be great. You guys have more experenice than me so it will be great for any kind of help. I already wasted alot of money on stupid stuff.. haha.... I should have getten the AP first and screw all those stupid body parts, light bulbs, and filter .. haha now I'm short with my money. So I better ask first this time. :/

Arigato~ Roy

I would personally do one of these:

1. Sway bars and endlinks, with the Whiteline ALK, the 6Gun Racing Subaru Ball Joint Extender. http://turninconcepts10.chainreactio...19fbfabea6ce80

2. Save some more and get a really nice set of coilovers, TEIN SS-P's are $1250 shipped without the EDFC, about $1560 shipped with the EDFC , my friend just got the set and man is it nice!

3. Why not get the Kartboy Short Throw shifter set, with all the bushings needed. Then, with the left over money, buy the parts you need for the turbo or the sway bars and endlinks ! http://turninconcepts10.chainreactio...19fbfabea6ce80
