Im going to get my UK 98 Impreza Turbo 2000 lowered on Koni Shocks and Springs.
I know this will cause my wheels to toe out . (<- i think thats what its called!) and i dont want to go through a set of tires a month
1. Can the camber/geometry be reset on a UK scooby?
2. Koni shocks are good arent they? coz my local performance garage swears by them!

Yes geom can be adusted!
Koni are a good make, though I havn't seen anyone on the bbs using them. Have look through the threads and see what others are using (they might be cheaper too)

vash,
you should have camber adjustment at the front via camber bolts but none at the back. get some camber bolts for the rear if you need adjustment there as well. you can also increase the size of the top strut bolt holes to get more play.
lowering will increase static negative camber all round (more so at the front). if you lower alot you may be stuck with as much as -2deg camber (at the front)unless you drill out the top holes as mentioned above. be aware of this or you'll wind up paying twice to have the 4-wheel alignment.
