With the stiff springs in the rear I'd think you would be going with a larger sway bar in the front now. One last question, whats an LDPT? Some sort of data logging sensor?

It works for street cars, some Nismo suspesion packages like the Altima and Maxima are tuned like this as is the C6 vette.
You want the bob of the front and rear to cancel out within 1/2 cycle of your target speed. I use 70-80 mph or so for a race car. Street cars use 50-60 mph or so.
A LDPT is a linear varible resistor on a rod used to datalog suspension movement with a very high resolution. I have the data logger but the buggers are expensive. I have some string pots but they don't have the resolution to do what I want to do next, looking at the distribution of shock piston velocity over time.
