Suspension setup - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

I ordered a pair of Tarmac 2 coilovers, camber plates, Eibach sway bars, and Voodoo rear lower control arms. Aiming for a track setup…thinking 1 to 1.5in lower will work. Will I need aftermarket end links, and/or any other parts to adjust height and camber?

With the adjustable swaybars, I would recommend adjustable endlinks as well.

Nothing else needed. Toe arms with eccentric lockout are IMO nice to have to make alignment easier and prevent slippage but not required.

Drive the car first, tune the balance and run out of adjustment on the coilovers before adding sway bars.

FWIW I'm running the factory end links with Eibach sways front and rear, ride height about 1.25" lower than stock. With factory links you kind of have to run the stiffer of two rear settings but that was what I want/need anyway...

I believe some aftermarket links may limit how much negative camber you can run up front before they impact the inside of the wheelwell so you might try factory links first, at least up front.
