That's a solid set up. You'll be super stoked on that. Very neutral.

You running any sway bars? A big rear bar would help that out too.

I run -1.8 up front and around -1.0 to -1.3 in the back... it's at -1.3 now. Have massive sway bars.

Thanks for the offer. Unfortunately I run a pretty beefy rear sway bar and sway bar mount. I'll snap those bad boys.

My perrin's seized up. They still work... mostly. But they're loud as hell.

I've got new whiteline's for the front. I'll order the rears in a week or two and climb up there and do my suspension when I do my LGT front brakes. Really need to find some LGT rears in the next couple weeks.

Yeah they have to raise and lower the coilovers over and over again to get the perfect 50% crossweight.

Not yet sway bars are definitely next on the list. 24mm adj. front and rear with kartboy endings is next. I won't have to corner balance either if it gets done right (I'd take it to them to put it on)

After that I plan on replacing every single bushing on the car and some STU legal bracing and I'll have the "ultimate" handling set up.

I want an ALK but I wouldn't be competitive in the class it would put me in.

So torn, all would be 2011 or 2012 new with warranty

Wrx hatch
LGT/3.6r
Fozzy xt

Thing that sucks is fozzy xt's and LGT's are so rare it will be impossible to test drive without traveling atleast 100 miles

Nice setup man.. I just got back from auto innovations to get a ride adjustment and realignment.. I got -1.7f and -1.2r 0 toe all around in my dd setup
ride height is 14.25f and 13.75r no more rubbing and man the handling is a night and day difference

Careful sherrifs etc. have been searching Uvas for Sierra Lamar don't run over the search party. They were doing sonar on both reservoirs. So sad I can't imagine how her family feels.
