Did you get the handling sorted in the end?

I wonder if lowering the car would affect the camber angles etc. Might be worth visiting a good chassis/wheel alignment specialist to make sure everything is as expected...

Lowering the LCR change the LCA angles massively.
The OEM ride height is where the LCA angles are level with the ground, any drop will change this for the worst

Yes. I got some new tyres (F1 asymmetric), and an LSD fitted.
Could not get the car on the ramp at the tyres place to do alignment, but got that booked in with JKM for Friday.

Makes the world of difference. No loose rear end when I turn in now and no understeer after apex.
