After a new engine and being able to corner at a decent speed, I'm finding I have some nasty understeer problems. Getting as bad as going in a straight line with the when trying to do a turn, feels like the front wheels are on ice.
What can I start off replacing to try and combat it?
I have 205 michelins on the front.
As you come of the breaks (gently), give the steering wheel a flick when there's still weight over the front wheels (and thus not much weight on the rear wheels)
I noticed after I tossed some coilovers on my car, lowered it a bit and got a bit more camber on my car, and also put a little neg in the back it seemed to turn in better.

I had the cars shocks checked (not springs yet) and the guy who did the test said it felt really stiff but typical for what it is. I think it comes down to me now entering off-camber corners too early - too fast.
i too have had issues with the staz's understeer... try ing to hit roundabouts at hi speed with 4 peoplz in the car a u will definately feel it..... but i love FF's which have a different driving style altogether.... hmmm i must get better at drifting....
Kiddies if u want 2 explore both your cars &your own limits please do it at the track & not on public roads :x
P/S if u do as i reccomend u will stand a better chance of becoming an old fart & not another statistic

I hate street racing. I mean it is all fun and games, but it is way too dangerous. Imagine killing someone. You would feel guilty the rest of your life. Unless you are a scumbag.
Where did you get the statistic?
