Oversteer is probably going to be a bit more apparent running a square setup, depending on the camber you are running and tire pressures.

I've had a lot of the same issues with rear-end squirm on hard braking, but after swapping out the FCAB for poly units, and putting the APR wing on, the problem is all but eliminated.

just my 2c

Thanks! Obviously I wasn't pushing too hard, but still running at a decent clip. I think you are right, I can really feel the slop and movement in the front, that was my thought as well. Given how quick it rotates this car really has the potential to be fast.

What shocked me was that I came in at 3400 lbs with a half a tank...

That e9x steering wheel looks great.

Re the shifter being low, get a Jaffster knob. Makes a big difference.

I love the steering wheel, looks and feels good too. I may put a Jaffster knob on there, I like those a lot.

I am not sure what the alignment settings are, I know it has the camber bolt and is probably maxed on the front for oem suspension.

Do you have a write up on how you got it to fit? I'm assuming there was some modification necessary?

I did not do the wheel mod, the previous owner had a shop do it I believe. The down side is the wheel controls do not work right now. I plan on taking it apart and seeing if I can get them to work.
