Let's see YOUR track Evo
Caster from top mounts move the wheel back, Caster from PSRS moves the wheel forward. USe them both and you can get back close to center (and have a lot of caster). No secrets from me, I'm slow.
YESSSS. 
(srsly, though, action shots FTW)
ETA: I think I saw this exact car at COTA today. So, there must be epic action shots of it somewhere! (And I'm definitely jealous of the group who got to run there, heh.)

I got my Evo last November. Picked it up Thursday and then Sunday I was doing this,

Safe to say that in 3 days the car was still stock.
I then put Gislaved Nordfrost 5s on and in January it looked like this,

Then spring came and I bought some wheels, Volk 57Ds 18x9.5 and a HSD coil over ( while I wait for something more serious)

waiting on the grid for 1st timeattack.

At speed at our local track during that timeattack.
The car is still stock, expect for the wheels, coilovers and brakes.
edit- Maganflow CBE and GULF Competition RF1000 brake fluid.
Since then, the car was at LCMT and WGI with COMSCC and then Mosport and Calabogie with ASE Lapping club.
Once I sort out the pad issues, I will be real happy.

So its been a while since I posted, the car is the same esthetically, but under the hood and at the corners, hold on.
In 2012 I finished up several mods.
The mods that have been bullet proof has been the KW Clubsports installed in 2011. They have made the car very trackable and still quite streetable. This mated with Whiteline swaybars make the car almost a go kart.
My brake issues were largely due to swapping back and forth from tarck pads to street pads, so now track pads stay in place. Yeah- thats noisy but thats the price to pay.
After trying DTC60 and 70 and then PFC 01s and now 08s, I can safely say that the PFs are quite unbeatable. My car is still in street legal trim and weighs in at 3450lbs for track days. This weight combined with RS3s, which are not as grippy as Hoosiers- thus making cornering speeds lower and requiring more shutdown- have taxed brakes more than most cars- and I have gad ZERO issues.
The Goodridge lines and Gulf RF1000 brake fluid are awesome.
I did not bleed the brakes all year.
Under the hood is a mix of AMS and MAP parts catalogue.
AMS intake, UICP, LICP, FMIC, Wide mouth, HFC and Magnaflow CB. MAP fuel surge tank, MAP EF2 turbo, and FPR kit. Injector Dynamics 1000cc, HKS plugs etc etc... I forgot many things...
Oh yah, the best mod, FULLRACE manifold- thanks Geoff!!
SSP has my covered with the underpanel as well as relays and BMC.
I have to say that most of 2012 was RD and we sorted out each mod and their effect on the car. The factory AYC pump died, and I drove 3 months in 1WD mode- even for competitions- thanks KW for making the car flat while it insisted on peeing like a dog!
Then the turbo housing failed and I ran Nationals with no boost- well very leaking boost- and that was not fun. Thanks to MAP for getting that housing out to me once we diagnosed the problem.
What will be on the menu for 2013? Not sure but with close to 425WHP and torque, I think that axles and diffs may be the next weak link. OS is working on diffs, but I like the factory AYC setup....
Here are some more recent pictures.

and more,
