You don't
need a kit in the front (unless you're going to run goofy amounts of camber). I'm running -3.5+ in the front with no kit. You'll need rear camber bolts if you want an aggressive alignment. I'm running -2.5+ in the rear. I'd recommend Pacific Automotive & Performance Center (ask for J. Koma). He's done lot's of Subies.

Sure it's
a daily driver. And it does corner well. Everything in life is a trade-off, but it really isn't affecting my tire wear adversely. I honestly may increase the camber to
-4.5/-3.5. I have a few mods in mind before I see the track again. I'm happy with the engine (needs a tune though) but will be doing a custom brake duct, rear subframe bolts, and may go with the Hotchkis competition sway bars. I haven't found a definitive answer on whether it's compatable with the STI "pink" bits.
