Anyone have any setup advice? I am going with Enkei RPF1s and Hoosier A6 245 / 225 staggered. Also can I use crash bolts for more cmaber in the front? How about rear camber? Any to be had? What about toe? Anyone running front toe out? How about rear?

That's a pretty lofty goal Alan! Just kidding. You and Jim should do much better than some other who have attempted GS in an Si.

I would advise against the staggered setup. You'll want to rotate those tires around event-to-event. Trust me.

Honda has camber bolts (only front, rear is non-adjustable), don't expect much gain, nor will you have the option of a few "varieties" of shank thicknesses like Toyota offers.

I run toe out front and rear. The car has a long enough wheelbase that it doesn't do anything stupid with -1/4" total in the rear... I would stay at -1/8" total up front so as not to increase scrub too much.
