By the way, fitting a LSD on it's own will increase understeer as the diff will try & stop the car turning! A locked diff (Detroit locker) as used on some race cars is much worse again.

I'm babbling on. I'm no suspension expert...
Thanks Tim, appreciate your input as you've completed a few track days and know your stuff.

I think I will get the E93 rear SB. I would have been disappointed if my E93 front SB made any less of a difference, as overall it was quite minimal.

I'm trying to take advantage of the fact that the rear subframe will be dropped to put in the rear bushes, and the rear SB is only $250 anyway.
