Chrome, what are you realy after?

If you want a pillow ball top mount with hude (and independant) adjustment of camber and caster then look no further than www.mrtrally.com.au
I have had a set of these on my hill climber for 2 years and I'm realy chuffed with them. They wern't expensive either, got mine from TEG sport, but they don't do them now.

Can send you a pic of them if you with or you can have a look at them when I come for my headers!

was looking at these as an alternative:
http://www.mrtrally.com.au/shop/

"STR TOPS F ADJ ROAD (Pr) 93-ONWRX
FRONT These strut tops (pair) allow for more positive castor and camber
to be set with the front suspension -
improves steering response and turn in drastically.
This part comes with a bush to reduce noise vehicle harshness (NVH) and
is not suitable for dedicated motorsport applications (race & rally).
All Impreza models (93-ON), including WRX & STi.
Will increase ride height by approx 10-15mm. For fast road use.
Code: muss128n
Price: AU$290.40


STR TOPS R ADJ ROAD(Pr)93-9/02ref
REAR Strut tops, pair, fully adjustable for castor and camber.
1993 - 9th Month 2002. (for 9/02 to current refer MRT).
Make it easy to adjust your suspension correctly.
These strong top mounts will fit either the GC (early) or
GD (current) model Impreza Chassis. Features sperical ball mount,
insulated in urethane to reduce road noise.
Manufactured with anodized aluminium top and bottom with central
cadmium plated steel adjustable plate. Cadmium plated high tensile mounts.
Graduated marks on alloy tops allow easy reference settings.
Fits standard or aftermarket struts, and will increase ride height by
approx 10-15mm. Suitable for road use.

NOTE: May also fit other models, please refer MRT P.
Code: muss128r
Price: AU$290.40 (Australian Dollars)
How easy they are to adjust is another matter
Looking to have greater control of camber and castor, so I can maybe lose my Anti Lift kit..

Those are the ones I have. They have survived 6000 road miles (in the Midlands!) and 2 seasons of hill climbing.
I use AVO coil-overs so adjusted for hieght with the springs. Spring rates are 320/300 Fr /Rr (pounds).

They adjust easy when the car is on the alignment jig. Adjusting in a carpark, race track etc not so good as you can alter caster as well as camber if you are not careful.

Still think they are great.
Wish i had removed the ALK though as that kit puts the nylon bushes I have in bind on the front lower wishbones. Job for Xmas. (and a realignment for slicks.....)
