Default understeer problem...help

first of all..i hav Ltuned ECU, suspension, and rear STB, and 18's i have front STB but took it off lately. planning to put it back on after a while.., recently i noticed an understeer when i corner at high speed.. is anyone having this kind of problem??? do u guys think it is becuz that i hav a rear STB and no front STB??? and i dont know why...but seems to me that the Ltuned ECU did not make a HUGE difference in the steering feel..
i hav a 01GS430,
thanks a lot

Why do you say its a huge understeer. What are the symptoms.

kyle3481:

Are you running stagger setup? If so this increases understeering.

if u have adjustable shocks stiffen the rear and soften the front a bit.

if u have adjustable sway stiffen the rear

if neither ur screwed get used to it thats ur cars layout now!



sorry to hear that understeering can be a *****, but dont worry its safter AND you run faster when ur car is an understeering opposed to a losse car.
