hi everybody i have a 2005 gpw s2000 with tein coilovers dunlop direzza tires , front cusco sway bar EDFC , i just alignment with uk SPEC i have the rear tires new and the front ones like 60 % of life. the four tires are at 30 PSI but NOW i feel the steeting more nimble or faster so much that when i change of line i feel steering much faster than before but more nervous. i feel the car nervous when changing lines after 60 or 80 km , i read that to much caster make the steering slower i was having 7 of caster and now 6 45 maybe i need to put 7 again.

Maybe i need more caster ....!!!!

your alignment looks fine except for the rear toe, 0.4 total rear toe makes the rear end twitchy to me, Id run 0.2 total or 0.1 each side.

the car was having 0.10 from the rear left and 0.60 from the right of toe in now is corrected to 0.40 , my car when i turn the steering to fast it UNDERSTEERS also understeers on turns...

i just readed that more caster makes steering slower and more precise maybe i need more camber and caster in the front

Why are you running 30 psi in your tires? Shouldn't it be about 32 psi?...

On a side note, if the car feels like it is understeering, then it is because you have less toe, but on the same token, what I read on your first post is that you stated you felt like the car's response to input was faster and more nimble, which is the exact opposite of understeering...please elaborate which statement is correct and which one I am misunderstanding.

As we said in the other thread, you want more camber in the front, less toe in the rear (like half of what you have), and your caster is fine.

the problem was that in the front the car is loosing camber set up because its lowered... what to do
