What about reducing understeer for all the extra power?
Maybe a bit more attention necessary on the suspension side of things?


I'm assuming using a bigger rear anti-roll bar would help understeer
Progress 27mm adjustable rear bar

^ ^ ^ Yup, it would. Bigger (26 mm) rear anti-roll bar was used very effectively in BozzSpeed's E6 RS.

For best results, should be used with the following:
Cusco adjustable LSDs front and rear (adjusted very tight in rear, very loose in front)...
Cusco 02R street spec inverted strut coil-overs...
1" wider 9�" front wheels & 8�" rear wheels... with the same size tyres front & rear... etc. etc.
More important... you have to strip the E6 until it is 2,600 lbs.

Complete specs. here... Link--> Beauty & The Beast - Mitsu MadMen style!
BozzSpeed's $0.02� Wink

By the way... that's the BEST damn Track Test that I've ever read... PERIOD!
If that doesn't get your blood boiling... Yay!!! Applause ... then you're DEAD!... Laughing

The weight-loss diet in particular is almost impossible for an E6 "daily driver."
An E6 "daily driver" without A/C isn't practical. These days other handling alternatives are available (Page 1.)
IMHO the most effective handling upgrades are as follows: (best "bang-for-the-buck")...

Whiteline Rear Bumpsteer kit (E1-9 ALL)...
Reflashed ACD (E7-9 ALL)...
Front helical LSD (E4-8 GSR)... etc.

Sancti, these days my car is getting a little annoying to drive with tramlining and bump steer.
Especially on the highway, it feels dangerous.

I recently (January) changed my ends inner and outer to NEW mitsu parts.
It seems to get worse when the tyres wear down a little.

The alignment is perfectly within factory specs. Thoughts?

Remember this is literally a daily driver eh, with occasional crack cocaine (read solodex).

tramlining and bump steer... daily driver... Nagisa Pillow Tie Rod Ends is one alternative.
Silvermike's suggestion is another. Whiteline's rear Bump steer correction kit is cheaper too...

KCA388 - Rear bump steer kit is designed to change bump steer characteristics depending on driving conditions.
For racing it is beneficial to reduce the amount of bump steer to give a more positive feel, sharper handling,
reduced rear passive steer, and reduce understeer.

Just as important, use Whiteline's Alignment Chart with their bushings.
