There is a definite improvement in handling with the Sprints.  The ride is
noticably rougher on large bumps, but the car ins't bouncy at all.  I was
driving hard on some backroads tonight, really pushing the car in the
corners - understeer has decreased quite a bit and there is much less tire
squeal on the same corners than before.

The alignment helped things tremendously.

Here are my alginment specs:
-Before-
(Position - Camber, Caster, Toe)
LF - 0.5, 1.6, -.66"
RF - -2.3, 1.7, .41"
LR - -0.5, n/a, .12"
RR - -0.9, n/a, 0.08"

Pretty F'd up!

I'm also experiencing a little bit of bump-steer.  Its not terrible, just
noticable.  I guess a strut tower brace is next on the list.

P.s. it still looks like the ass end of my car is up in the air, what's up
with that?!  The springs are seated properly!
