Question What would you do from these options?

OK, Birthday is coming up and id like to make a small addition to my car in some way. I have narrowed it down to 3 or 4 choices, but i am wondering what you guys feel would be the most beneficial addition if it were you. The car in question is a 2003WRX.

1: Uprated Brake Pads (Ferodo 2500) and fluid (DOT4 of some desc).

2: Eibach prokit springs (or prodrive?)

3: Front and rear Strut bars

4: Samco Hosing? (although not sure exactly what id need here)

My tendency is towards the brakes at the moment as I have never had 100% confidence in the standard stoppers, as i feel they fade far too easily, but equally the other options also have their benefits......

Any thoughts?

Sadly I cant afford all of them right now!!!!!

Cheers for your input!
Neil

P.S. alternatively if you can think of any other decent additions feel free to let me know!

I would save your money and go buy something worthwhile - MK has a good shopping centre ..... go buy a nice SLR Digital Camera, MP3 and stuff (DIXONS are doing 10% off everything while stocks last!)

Brakes will be my next mod also.... though is turning out to be an expensive option as I want the 355mm AP kit and therefore need 18" alloys!!

However, I can highly recommend the Prodrive springs (£195 from Subaru) and Laser wheel alignment (£120 at TSL), as they have made my car soooo much more enjoyable to drive. They also have the benefit of not affecting the warranty.
