If you have a standard STi 4 or 5 import what would you need to do to improve handling ? Having read a few threads the anti-lift & bump steer seem likely candidates. Anything else anyone can think of ? Appreciate any suggestions.

Andy, without a doubt these two mods work extremely well. Before I had it done all my car did was understeer and now it handles quite neutrally with even a bit of lift off oversteer.
IMO well worth every penny!

The bump steer mod seems to be well liked with no one mentioning negatives. I understand what bump steer is and some ways to correct it but I am not sure which way the shop that commonly does the mod uses. Do they raise or lower the steering rack or adjust toe settings ? Or do they raise or lower the steering rod ends at the spindle ? I have a MY 2002 WRX ( MY 01 in GB ) and would like to know more about this modification. I have Whiteline 22mm adjustable rear anti-roll bar and H/D end links plus ALK being delivered this week but I always like to learn more. Is the BSM needed as much on new age impreza's ? I appreciate your help and patience with my yankee questions
