I'm looking for some advice. The engine is almost back in the car, and I then need to finish the chassis upgrades.
I have a ST front sway bar to install and my friend seems to think that if I remove the sway bar altogether and NOT install the ST bar, that will significantly remove any understeer.  <- I gave him one of these.Doesn't make much sense to me to completely remove it; the new REAR sway bar is installed and set to stiff. But I can't see this car having so much HP that understeer would be affected at all... Squash this inner turmoil for me. ... and GO! -------------------- |

Camber doesn't wear tires down. Alignment and toe issues is what kills tires.
