Default Bug wrx Track car setup, next step

Hi Guys

2001 wrx. Mapped to approx 280
Brakes setup well for track
White line parts plenty underneath
Dunlop Rally Tyres

RCM catchcan is def getting fitted

what should be my next move for track setup out of these options?

Coil overs? BC
or
Drivers bucket seat and harness?
or
Heavier front ARB, chassis braces and rear diff bushes?

Car does still understeer, I have rear arb in stiffest setting

cant buy all just now

thanks

Billy

Personally I'd go for stiffer suspension of some sort. Not sure how the BC coilovers compare to eg std shocks with lowering springs, but the standard springs are way too soft for track IMO...

fuel surge is an issue with these cars unless you're prepared to keep the tank around half full or over, issues seem to start around a third full for me, so swirlpot set-up or the spec-c in-tank anti-surge kit. Obviously try and keep a good suspension balance which may be difficult if upgrading over time.
