Anyone experienced inside wheel lifting under fast cornering?
I have an 04 WRX PPP with standard suspension. I don't find the car has loads of understeer however i'm more used to rear wheel drive cars and think that may due to my rear wheel influenced driving style. I find i can provoke drift in the wet but in the dry the car seems to lift a wheel. It feels like the front inside wheel but it may be the rear not sure.
Anyone find the same, can anyone suggest mods that are not too costly (i guess up to replacing springs etc not coil-overs or owt like that)

I have quite considerable track experience with the MY03 WRX and have never felt it lift a front wheel, and tbh I think I've only felt it picking up a rear when on slicks.
I would replace the springs all round with either prodrive or eibach, fit some solid anti-roll bar droplinks, and fit a rear adjustable anti-roll bar.
Don't do the front anti-roll bar as you'll find it won't turn in so well, and don't bother with a rear strut brace as the shell is quite stiff on the MY03+.
Get it to somewhere like Powerstation who know how to set the suspension geometry properly is probs the single most important thing though, and check your tyre pressures; I usually run 32f / 29r.
