You might have trouble finding someone who hasn't done the roll centre kit and coilovers at the same time Joel. Did Franz do them separately on his MR?

Yeah, usually the story isn't it!! Franz did seperately, but that is EVO...

The word around the track seems to be that the kit is necessary on EVO, but not so much with WRX... this is why I'd be interested to know if anyone had coilys/ lowered car and THEN fitted the kit (and I suppose has some reasonable knowledge of handling/ how to steer a car as well).

I've got a reasonable knowledge...

Before the kit fitted, my handling was pretty sik.

With the kit fitted, its now fully sik.

Yes...more help on the EVO than Subaru.
I fitted one to my car about 18 months after coilovers etc. It seems to make a positive difference...my knowledge of handling/how to steer....hmmm, a point of contention!
