Default Rear active steer questions

Hey ya'll, recently picked up an lc500, loving the car so far. Was trying to take a video of the rear active steer but it doesn't appear to turn the wheels when stopped or at least in park? I distinctly remember seeing a 94 prelude and at a stop the 4ws on that car was very pronounced. Perhaps someone could explain? Maybe mine is broken? Lol thanks in advance!

The rear wheels only turn up to 2 degrees - in the same direction at higher speeds and opposite direction at low speeds. It's subtle, but you should be able to notice it when parked. You probably need to turn the front wheels all the way to notice the subtle change on the back wheels. Have someone else turn the steering wheel while you watch the back wheels. I did this when I got mine 2 years ago and I could see the movement.

I took a video and you're right. It's barely noticeable but it does actually turn.
