good luck, raymundo
Don't know that the steering feels much quicker, but the car rides 1000% better and doesn't track all over the road. I have to hold onto the wheel with both hands almost all the time with my summer setup on the car.

You need bump steer correction.

I'm refering to the car being darty, wanting to track all over the place... would that have an effect on this? I would think it has more to due with wide wheels/tires and the aggressiveness of the tire itself.

Sounds like bumpsteer to me. Though, i beleive the whiteline kit only fixes rear bump steer. Not sure if you can get the same effect from the front.

do you have an aggressive front toe setting?

He can't even get proper camber settings...

Honestly though Pete, look into the bumpersteer correct kits from Whiteline.

Being as my car isn't lowered, I don't think a bumpsteer kit would do anything, after it gets lowered it may.

Don't rag on my set-up, my alignment is more aggressive than stock, but not overly aggressive by anymeans. Either way, it was still enough kick your butt.


You guy's running aftermarket wheels and tires (esp StarSpecs), does your car track all over the road?

Your thinking of the RCK. The bumpsteer kit works on non-lowered cars as well.

Whats your front camber set at homie? You can PM me if you dont want to share your award winning setup.

My car does a bit of tracking with the kosei's. It makes sense that the heavier wheels would smooth out the motion of the suspension.
