OP stated he was seeking max positive castor which is exactly what the strut tops as they are will give

Must have skipped that bit! haha

Whiteline offer a castor adjustment bush also, separate to the ALK I believe.

already got it and it is an offset ALK to give adjustable castor(max 0.5) and relocates the arm about 5-10mm lower(Anti-Lift).

raptors in and installed with slight increase in noise.. not much which is awesome.
AVCS solenoids are very lazy, so need to get the brake cleaner on the filters and log them. And my air filter looks like its been through a dust storm.
Change the plugs and then i can finish doing the tune properly and get it on the dyno again and clean up the numbers.

WTF were subaru thinking when they put an open rear diff in the pre-facelift 3RB's? though not much worse than a viscous though! :lol:
anyways i setup the cuscoRS plated diff with 65% lockup, around 40Nm of preload and cam setup as 2-way. all new seals.
car compared to before is like chalk and cheese. can do donuts now like there is a rod going through the middle of the wagz into ground. :lol:
no shuddering and damn does it now hookup and grip. Can't wait for trips to the snow! 8)

Also had to change the AVCS solinoids. Passenger side was very laggy, all good now though but no change from $320. :roll:
