Just wanted a bit of advice.
The car a late classic WRX - totally standard.
I always run goodyear F1s on 17s running 36front 32rear.
What I want it to do -
I want it to have the same characteristics on the limit as the standard car. (power understeer and trail brake-lift oversteer)
But I want the whole car to be stiffer and for it behave in a crisper tighter way and for the power understeer to cut in latter and be progressive and predictable.
What handling mods would you do to improve the standard car? what mm ARB etc etc. Kind of like a checklist of parts if you like that I could scource.
Hopefully the Old Man 911 :D will help me out on this one :)

The 'Old Man 911' has just woken up dribbling from 60 winks....
:D
Cusco said it all!
The only things I would add is to get the car aligned by someone who actually knows what he is doing so to get the very best out ofthat listing, and; maybe add some whiteline rear camber bolts as the camber adjustment on the rear can be restrictive on stock bolts to get to 1.5 deg neg camber (or even more)
Car will be ballistic!
Off to bed now with some warm milk.

Yeah I'd go with the above set up to, that what I'm saving for.
I'm not gonna bother wit hthe anti lift kit though, the other mods will be more than enough for a road car.
