Do you track you car or intend to?

[jacks-GTB]

nah not to track, but to just stop some understeer.. what you reckon?

Don't change the front.

[cruisn]

As above, to reduce under steer or induce over steer, upgrade the rear sway bar only.

or learn how to better drive the car. Seriously, the inherent understeer can easily be driven around to the point that you don't need to go down the track of increasing the tendency of the car to snap oversteer on you - which it will as stock and will only become worse on you with a stiffer rear bar or softer front bar.

Your choice though

Run some camber on the front wheels will help too.

Depends on what sort of driving you do, when I lived in Mt Glorious with sharp off camber corners and lots of breaking down the mountain, the stock set up plain sucked due to body roll. Did front and rear sways and made a lot of difference, now you throw it into corners and it's so much better. Snap oversteer will bite you if you push it, but after a while you get to know the limitations.

I do agree with Smythie too, learning how to drive it better helps a lot.

I've got the opposite problem. My 3.0RB rolls a bit too much for my liking at the back and seems to want to oversteer when I go drive quickly through though sweepers.

The car doesn't feel no where near as neutral as the RS Turbo I had years ago. I could just power through the corners without so much as a second thought. So I'm planning to get a Cusco rear sway bar from Phat GT with a front one to match.

I would have got them by now but I'm just between jobs at the moment, so am watching the expenses.....

[smythie]

If over steer is your issue, a stiffer rear anti roll bar is only going to make it worse (by reducing rear grip) unless you are going very stiff on the front to reduce front grip to compensate

[GTbee]

Yeah I see what you mean. I'm wondering if I get the front and rear Cuscos as a set, whether the front sway bar will have the appropriate extra stiffness in comparison to the rear sway bar to achieve the desired result?

[jacks-GTB]

i think i might get a rear than, i put kuhmo ku31's on and they are quite good considering the price, a little less understeer too..
