I'm on Hotchkis sways on both ends, with the rear currently set at its softest setting (because that worked best for rear-end stability on the street tires - but then again I haven't re-evaluated that in a while, and my driving has improved and changed a lot since then. Perhaps the problem was more me than the car ). I've been hearing the ideal is to go to weak or non-existent rear sway and stiffer rear springs instead.

The other suspension components are stock other than SPL's front upper control arms for camber/caster adjust. Front is in the ballpark of -2.5 camber and 7 in whichever is the only reasonable direction on caster, I think. I set it at home with one of those cheap kits, and it's been a while, I should probably go re-measure and adjust sometime. I left the rear alone at stock-ish settings (with the changes from the car lowering ~3/4" or so), so I think it's gotta be around -2 camber there?

I should start writing these things down when I measure them heh, it's been months.
I am not Mr. Track but it seems to me that most people suggest stiff front sway soft rear sway. OR...is that just for autocross?
