we get very little camber gain from compression, but fortunately at least we have about 8 degrees caster, which means we get lots of camber with steering angle.

I just don't think it's a great idea to run the GT3 bar by itself. But to each his own, you are correct that you can always sell it.
the GT3 bar feels fairly neutral on the street for me at about -1.0 front camber. my experience on track is consistent w/ john's opinion; about -1.5 degrees up front. i don't run a 245, though. i bought carrera wheels, so my fronts are 7.5" wide w/ 225 tires. my rears are 10" wide w/ 265's.
