Rear end stiffening overkill?
Rear end stiffening overkill?
ssooooo what i have installed is a rear tower brace, rs trunk brace, whiteline 25mm rear sway adjusted to the stiffest setting. this is my dd/street car. im having a bit too much oversteer and looking for suggestions. i like ripping around turns as we all do! lowering springs, carbing 6 point, front sway bar mod?

Ah, what?
First off, why? What's the goal here? Have you ever driven high spring rate cars? It's not fun.
Now, the RSB on full stiff is the issue. Tune it to soft setting. All those braces do little on the car. More in the bling area than performance.

soften the rear sway bar to ease up on the oversteer. if u want tooth shattering/ rigid ride, then get some stiffer springs. coilovers with higher spring rates/ race valving perhaps.
lol. its not tough fellas..
if you have a rear sway and its on ALL THE WAY STIFF it means you will induce over steer. if you want to eliminate that, LOOSEN the sway bar! put your links on a setting closer to the front of the car.. problem solved!
PS. the sway bar will not add or subtract how "stiff" the car is while driving down the road. if you want to change that setting, as it was said in the thread, get a stiffer/higher spring rate for whatever lowering springs/coilovers you have.
