hahah morgan they are ricey arent they.. I cant believe muggz that u have them in ur possession..
hmmm theres so many things that could help the car but not sure where to start then... So an antilift kit would be the first suitable mod then?? Followed by roll centre Followed front and rear sway bars Followed by uprated endlinks Followed by Front and rear strut braces.. As for the degrees of camber id be running normally around 1.5 for the street but for the track around 3-3.5 degrees..

Just follow captain AHG's advice. He never gets pipped by stock suspension evo's in the wet!

1) Anti lift kit = castor
2) Send danman a PM and ask him what he had on his old STi. It turned in very nicely! I know Dan fitted the anti roll kit on his car later in it's development with good results. Nauli may also have a few ideas he may wish to share? Settle on about -2.5 camber NORMAL, if you change settings between track and street it will take you forever to get comfortable with the car. Eg. If you get 30k out of a standard set of tyres @ $1200 and you get a reduction in tyre life of 20% with -2.5 deg camber (I doubt it) then this will cost you to grand sum of $240. How many km's do you average a year? Mine is 6.8k km per year, Big f@#$en deal on the extra tyre cost. You will burn more on a single set of track pads. btw muggs that's now 2 memorable put downs...

Roll center kit only comes in handy when you lower the car excessively. With a minor drop in height, I doubt you would notice the roll center kit doing anything. With a major drop in height it is essential.
Basically people drop their cars thinking the lower center of gravity will make it stick to the road like shit to a blanket. Unfortunately there are a multitude of variables in suspension geometries. One of them also being roll center. Having this too low will adversely effect the handling of the car, namely why aftermarket companies have released the kits to correct it. If you drop the car a lot it is possible to have the roll center below the ground causing all havoc. Then you have camber curves to look at and then ...
