Anti-lift benefits, and why?
Forgot who turned me on to MRT AUS. website, but thanks, it's a Godsend! To paraphrase Mrt's statements, circa Oct. 02, " Lap times, racing results, and driver feedback all support efficacy of ALF, but all your questions are valid. Please give us, {MRT}, a month or two to conduct, scientific , "double blind' tests to quantify, and hopefully explain true effects of ALF".
Unbelievable!! By the end of Nov. 02, MRT had , true to their word, spent tons of $ on exhaustive, often self-deprecating, tests and research. RESULT: ALF is a valuable asset to any suspension, but not for the reasons they had originally propounded. If interested, would rec. their website explanation. Believe me, it will truly explain the effects of an ALF.
Can you IMAGINE a U.S. Co. responding to an INDIVIDUAL request!!! NO WAY! Salient example: Called Vishnu on three consecutive days, regarging reflash. I called "Long distance" as customer "trying" to make an appt. NOTHING!, no calls back. Hey Shiv, you didn't re-invent the wheel, you're just SELLING it! As anyone can find out, all ECUTEK's software is 100% available to all us "consumers", at minimal cost thru MRT.
IN closing, really wish US firms had a clue about true business integrity. In my humble opinion; Too busy making quick cash to bother with the big, longitudinal picture.
Sincerely discouraged,
Collins
P.S. Hey Shiv: Hire a GD receptionest! Think ahead, we're not all under 30 novice tuners. Quick cash is alluring, where are you going to be 10 years from now?

Unfortunately, probably doing better than ever due to the inexhaustible supply of under 30 novice tuners. 
Anyhow, bamfwrx what do you mean when you say that the MRT camber/caster mounts do not allow camber to be adjusted? Are they not a valid alternative to the ALK? I (and ryball) hope that there is something other than an ALK that can provide more caster or at least stop our cars from the annoying dive and "wheelie" characteristics they currently have.

no I said that you can't adjust caster on a wrx
I have been quite happy with the ALK
it made trun in so much sharpert hat I hit two curbs the week after I installed it. looking at the stock bushings and the alk it appears to add some caster as well as camber.
does anyone want the group n bushings that come with the ALM control arms?

I'm sorry that you're having problems getting through to us. Brett and Ken take phone orders and make tuning appointments throughout the day, every day. I'm usually stuck on the dyno so I don't get to talk on the phone much. While we get overwhelmed at times, we do try to return all phone calls. This, unfortunately, doesn't always seem to be possible. If you are still waiting to hear from us, pls email us at sales@vishnutuning.com and provide us your contact info with day and nightime phone numbers. I often see Brett at work until 8pm making call-backs and replying to emails. Hope to meet you.
Best Regards,
Shiv

Shiv's response
Shiv.
Thank You for your response. I will use e-mail, if unable to get thru on phone. In reviewing my prior message, I was guilty of not giving you "the benefit of the doubt". I apologize. Frustration is the best excuse I can come up with.
Look forward to doing business with You,
Collins

I was not aware of the strut top design that MRT has.
I was wrong in me earlier post and caster and camber are both adjustable with those strut tops.
oh and about e-mailing shiv that has never worked for me, several unreturned e-mails. but I have always got an answer when I called them.

From MRTs website:
Impreza Front Adjustable Strut Tops - Road
These strut tops (pair) allow for more positive castor and camber to be set with the front suspension - improves steering response and turn in drastically. This part comes with a bush to reduce noise vehicle harshness (NVH) and is not suitable for dedicated motorsport applications (race & rally). All Impreza models (93-ON), including WRX & STi. For fast road use.
Code: muss128n
Price: $362.50 (Australian Dollars)
Is this a viable alternative to the ALK? Can it provide the same alignment settings?
