Whiteline Bits - What to go for???
I have a 55 plate newage WRX with the prodrive spring kit and top front strut brace.
I still find the car still a little soggy and was looking to invest in some Whiteline bits to tighten things up abit. Thing is, is that there are so many bits available.
I would grateful if anybody with personal experience with Whiteline parts could recommend the top 5 bits that they would invest in if they were I and possibly explain how they help.
cheers

If you can tolerate a bit harsher ride:
Whiteline or Eibach springs (though Sti's would be good too but will not lower the car 20mm). The springs you have will be close I think.
Whiteline rear anti roll bar, 22mm 3 way adjustable.
This will make a big difference over to stability.
At the front a set of Anti lift kit blocks.
This increases the caster in the front end so generating more negative camber on turning in a bend, Will ease (not irradicate) some understeer.
This mod compliments nicely the rear bar mod.
Set of camber bolts in all 4 corners of the suspension
This will allow the alignment technician to give a great geometry which the stock bolts are just short of providing. Cheap too for the benefit.
Alignment:
Get it all done by someone who really knows what they are doing.
IMHO you are quite a way from PowerStation in Tewksbury, but it is worth the travel to get Curtis or Andy to do the car.
Curtis does my race Impreza and it is just so good.
You will have a very nice chassis with this lot (I'm assuming all the parts are in good condition)
You can go a lot further forward at the expense of some comfort.
Take your wife to PStation to stop you from spending too much
Hope this helps.

For a second opinion.... I completely agree with what is written above although I am sure it was just a slip of the finger that Graham did not mention solid drop links in there somewhere unless the WRX also has the 05 rosejointed suspension - but I did think that was STI only.

1. Metal drop links rear and maybe front if they're going.
2. 22mm adjustable ARB on rear.
3. Anti-lift kit
4 & 5 - Look further afield than just Whiteline for dampers and springs. KYB/Eibach are a very popular and relatively cheap combo, I swear by them.
