How do I stop this happening?
After spending some cash on the engine I need to improve my Type R's handling so I can make the most of it.
It's currently running standard shocks with Cusco -25mm springs and has top and bottom, front and rear strut braces. The car feels really tight and with the DCCD understeer isn't a problem but I'd like to eliminate the body roll you can see above.
I'd prefer to stay away from coilovers if possible as they seem a little too stiff so would uprated arb's do the trick. If so what ones would you recommend?
Cheers

Everso simple. Fit a Whiteline rear antiroll bar and have the aignment set by someone very good. In Glasgow I have no idea who, but in the Midlands it would be Powerstation.
With that, you will soon find the understeer again, so best pop in a set of MRT topmounts whilst the geometry is done. the alignment guy will thank you.
Coil-overs are only stiff if the springs selected are, and the damping badly set. They can be as soft as a stock Impreza.

Body roll does not mean bad handling. In fact I would think some cars get their "turn in" from some body roll
Some cars do it more than others. The car behind mine, is the "best handling" 968 CS with M030.....and that is leaning a fair bit. Mine more so, as I have softer supension, and R rated tyres.

Running a 'solid' chassis is very adictive due to the Kart-like responses. you put up with the bangs and crashes and the odd jarrr from the cr@p UK roads.
My 911 is just the same, turbo suspension and special double valved Bilsteins..rock solid but just so nice.

Although the Scoobs suspension needs as much help as it can get (adjustable top mounts are very handy )
