and here is my car weight, very close to your car weight, but I think with half fuel tank.

Also, about spring rates, this is something I noticed when I got my mca reds, there was a big difference in front and rear, 21k/7k, when I had my rear height higher than fronts by around an inch, the car was nearly neutral, but when I tried with lower rear, around 0.5 inch higher, the car understeered at exit but my turn in was great. Many factors could affect understeer/oversteer, it could be adjusted easily unless it is undrivable.

Thanks for the information and yes Dan has been really helpful. I was only able to get one track day really with the true coilovers and it was kind of scary as I had two offs due oversteer. I could not trail brake because the rear end wanted to pass the front end as well. I don't know if I will end up as stiff as you are up front but probably pretty close to where you are in the rear. I generally run 0.5" of rake. It seems to work pretty well for me when go low with my ride height.
