i ended up binning the sti suspension on my hawk sti and got racing logic coilovers and 4 wheel alignment and you wouldnt know its the same car, the standard set up is terrible looking back compared to now.

and i used A line in dudley for the alignment, top garage although abit far away from you.
cheers

Then check your dampers to make sure they are in proper working order. If you have a blown or sticking damper it could also give that twitchy feeling. But usually its a geometry issue. You can have 20,000 GBP coilovers on the car and it can still feel twitch and drive poorly if your geometry isn't sorted.
