Wheels: STi/Rotas/WRX/Whatever you want or can afford
Suspension: Swaybars/Coilovers/STi struts or springs/HD links/bushes
Brakes: WRX brakes/Slotted rotors/braided brake lines/Brembos if youre loaded

All P plate legal or subtle enough to not get noticed

If you just want some low some "low" king springs would be a cheap option, might be a bit bouncy on stock struts though.

I had this setup in my old impreza and it was alright. It done the job but I did notice the difference in ride quality.

1997 GTB wheels, anything OE 5 spoke; Liberty B4 5 spoke, Gen4 GT 5 spoke.

Fitment will be fine and won't cost as much as STi Enkei's or JDM wheels.

2013 Wrx wheels look awesome and can be pretty reasonably priced secondhand.

i bought mine from a guy on Gumtree, but he originally posted it up on a subaru parts group on fb, was pretty lucky to get them for $550. There is a post also on my build thread.
