for what it's worth they aren't that bad handling wise. they are pretty bouncy with the sti strut and cusco sway bar set up.

Thanks. I've got to. Any customer who comes looking at WRX/STI/EVO's at our dealership gets kicked right to me... then once they own them, I am like Uncle Milty and they all come asking for advise! If I steer them wrong, they can get real pissy... wouldn't you???

The best advise I give them, is do it ONE item at a time, then carefully decide if that changed works and your car is better, before moving to the next item. You'll have a whole lot less parts (mistakes) stacked in the corner of the garage that way!!!
