We had a sort of "Group Buy" when they opened on a Suinday for the Essex Scooby Crew & they discounted the geometry,spring & tyre supply & fitting on the day.Details about prices are in this thread & if they are near enough to you,give them a ring. :-

Great - wet weather today, so got to try a roundabout or two.
There seems to be more grip than before, with slightly less understeer at the limit. It's still very well balanced though; when stock my wrx wasn't going to bite me and this is the same. Tends to understeer still, but coming off the power gently brings the front back in line. Coming off a bit sharper allows the back to drift, something which was difficult on the standard set-up. So, it's as easy as it was before to steer it with the throttle when the intial steering lock has been fixed.
So, no full-on tail-out heroics but much more fun than it was even for a driver like me (and faster as far as I could tell).
