Since GIST is a grid-based method, the results depend upon how the
solute/solvent are oriented with respect to the grid. In general, you
should autoimage w.r.t. the region of interest (so e.g. if you're
focusing on a specific binding site, you should 'anchor' on that site)
then rms-fit the trajectory so you remove any global rotation and
translation. So for example you could autoimage to the origin, then
put your gist 'gridcntr' at 0 0 0.

The only property that imaging direcly impacts is diffusion - but
since this is a grid based method all that matters is that the grid is
stable w.r.t to your reference frame (usually the solute), which is
what the rms fit is for.

SHAKE is in fact required for rigid water models to perform properly,
so you need it on.
Hope this helps,
