Just had my geomtry done
To Prodrive settings (thanks dipster 
)here and wow what a difference , car(my04 STI PPP with Prodrive springs ) now steers much more accurate , steering feels lighter , suspension feels like it working as it should and car as a much more planted feel also i detected a bit of oversteer 
coming home yesterday ,
I got a printed sheet of the work before an after , and the offside front wheel was miles out which explained the heavy steering to the right and offset steering wheel , car feels like i thought it would feel now , good mod
if your thinking of having it done go for it

Cool m8,
From the factory my front wheels had zero camber! and the toe was all over the place (03sti).
Got mine sorted at Elite in Rainham Essex-top blokes.
I agree, the drive out of the workshop felt very different, lighter on the steering and the cornering was a revelation. Std springs as well BTW.
IMHO its a must have on any car, new or used.
