Best handling mods
Hi,
What handling modifications could I benefit from with upgrading my ver.3 WRX RA. So far it has the following upgrades/mods....
- Quick ratio steering rack (fitted from standard)
- Alloy wishbones (fitted from standard)
- Short Shifter
- STI carbon Fiber front strut brace
Everything else is stock with regards shocks/springs, I am planning to upgrade the shocks/springs to P1 items and use some cusco camber plates with them to add a bit of negative camber.
What else would the car benefit from (fast road car toy, plan to track it eventually). Uprated ARB, polybushes, droplinks, antiflift kit, rear strut brace, etc etc?! I really have no idea what else the car would respond to well
thanks!

On a classic, to get rid of understeer, ALWAYS keep the FRONT arb slightly weaker than the rear.
So: uprated rear, leave front alone, or uprate front, go up TWO thicknesses in rear. Most leave the front alone.
Fit solid droplinks all round and an anti-lift kit.
THEN get a PROPER geometry done, NOT by the local tyre fitting place.

Thanks for the replies everyone
I think the rear ARB, will be my next mod. What is the max thickness I can go for, is it suitable to go for the largest possible? I'll probably leave the front alone then.
Also who is best for solid drop links and anti lift? I hear good things about whitline products?
