Default Advice Needed



Hi, this is my Jdm Widetrack Sti. I’m after some advice. I’ve recently had some MeisterR GT1’s fitted as well as a geo setup. The car has been lowered approximately 25mm. I’ve been getting a slight cluck on full lock and have noticed the track rod end touching the drop link but only on full lock. Would an adjustable roll bar with adjustable drop links solve this? It it would what would people recommend?


With steering straight.


on full lock.


Any advice appreciated. Thanks!

Those are not genuine Subaru drop links so maybe too long?

Your front ride height is too low. I'd run 360mm, minimum, at the front.
You need more negative front camber: neg 1 deg 45mins to neg 2deg and less negative rear camber: neg 1deg 15mins to neg 1deg 30mins. Keep a 30min, front to rear, differential.
I'd run positive 0deg 05mins rear toe-in, per side.

^^ As per this - too low. A bit higher and things should clear

The angle of your arms should look more like this
