It's not a big deal. You do have to run a bit more static camber, not really a major prob. When I studied geometry of my 240Z vs my S2000, IIRC the Z's struts gained about 0.5 deg. camber per inch of travel vs. S2000 at about 1 degree per inch. So run a bit more static camber. Note that this doesnt really hurt braking as you don't gain as much camber as the front suspension is compressed as wishbones do.

I think the FT86's 55/45 weight distribution is a bigger hindrance to performance than front struts...
