Touring cars were in a different league when it comes to geometry setup but if you want something proper for the track you want to be speaking to SCS Harvey Gibbs or Jimbo on this forum regarding one of their rear beam setup's

They also would advise you on a diff mount too - i use a MSD mount but i don't use mine on track so i can't fully say what they're like.

But don't polybush the trailing arm bushes!

Imo poly bushes, at least this is what I am going to do for the beam mounts, imo solid beam mounts will add more NVH!

The only difference between the rear braking setup is 2WD have solid disks, opposed to the 4x4's vented, a good mod is to fit the 4x4 rear brakes (which is a straight swap) as the solid discs can get a bit hot!
