Toyota set up
Remember the yota front springs are on a line with the bottom ball joint, so the front springs need to be way softer to produce the same wheel rate as with the Fox mustang, which also has struts, but the spring is on the lower a-frame.
caster/camber/toe are similar, adjust the lower a-frame lengths if you can, to improve camber curve., 2" spacer between the bottom of the strut tube and the ball joint will help bump. KYB Gas struts/shocks.JerryM -

What are the track details and rules to follow? I assume the car is a solid axle car and not an IRS version.
As a baseline left turn on any surface setting, I suggest that you try:
Camber: LF +1, RF - 4
Caster: LF +2.5, RF +2.75
Toe: LF -.10 degrees, RF -.10 degrees: total = -.20 degrees
Rear: 0 thrust angle
Without knowing any other details, suggesting springs and any other set-up is a waste of time.
