I'm at 1.5* with just camber bolts.
That's pretty easy to get on the RS*R without the camber plates.

Just go on ebay or amazon to get coilovers dude. No need for that expensive stuff bro. Dude, you can get epic deals...like $600 coilovers...pretty stoked. Quality made too, made in china coilovers are the best (orientals make quality stuff). You can even get colorful coilovers to match custom wings, bodykits and interiors. Shaka bro.

Can you elaborate on what you consider the intended use for the iSports? Where do they shine and where do the fall short?

It defines the sport usage of the vehicle. Sport-i is not meant for competitive track use. It's meant to improve upon the performance of the base setup and allow you to improve as a driver instead of focusing on suspension setup.

With that said, this is a coilover setup with a decent spring stagger that provides you a slightly more neutral handling feeling. This makes the car feel closer to the feeling you get from the factory yet provides a substantially better ride quality over certain surfaces.

It shines for literally your specific use. It will fall short if you expect to be very competitive on track. Our sponsored driver uses the RS*R "Club Racer" Sport-i model (slightly stiffer springs + camber plates front) and has suddenly went from being potential podium to consecutive 1st place finishes in his autocross classing.
