Hi ! Just moving from a Forester GT to a MY08 3.0RB so all my accumulated knowledge is now useless and I'm a newbie again

Is there a cheap easy way to get increased caster on the RB ? (I'm guessing my GC8 STI alloy LCAs with spacers and bolt flip just don't apply here

).
Does the front camber have a degree of factory adjustability ?

Certainly not as easy as older platforms but the whiteline ALK and concentric caster bolts will gain you about a degree.
I wouldn't suggest spacers as I've seen them lead to cracking of the front crossmember.

Thanks Adrian.
Is there an adjustable pillowball topmount available for these that gives caster, or is it camber only ?
