Have you never seen an STU car on course? They setup for lots of throttle oversteer without touching the rear diff.

i guess not a properly set up one! though at least they can restack the diff. how do you set up an evo 8/9 for throttle oversteer without touching any of the diffs and not being super loose everywhere else?

Is it really throttle oversteer though? Before I upgraded to a TRE diff I couldnt really power oversteer. Sure there were plenty of times where I the back end would step out and then by getting back on the gas I could steer with the throttle but nothing like how it is now.

It was quite difficult to induce rotation with the throttle. More often then not by attempting to do so the car would push.

So are you saying that an STU can actually throttle oversteer and if so, how? I'm not calling BS or anything but just surprised...

this is my sentiment. not talking about rotation, talking about on power on throttle oversteer, like rwd style
