^^ I have the same setup (KW V3 / Saner bar / 255's all around) but I run my fsb on full soft. My car is more prone to oversteer.

I would stiffen the rear rebound if you want oversteer.

I am looking to improve rear traction during exit as the inside wheel is lifting and losing traction.

I wouldn't mind taming the oversteer a bit as well.

update on an old thread:

Ran an APR GTC-200 wing on risers and it made a TREMENDOUS difference on the track. Car is super tossable (like my old Miata track car). I am very happy with the settings but will be going from a 225/255 to a 255/255 setting this weekend so I expect some additional adjustment will be needed.

I will start by setting my CT swaybar on full stiff, and stiffening up front compression and rebound a bit.

I am going to be trying CR front springs/struts on the front of my MY2000 with non stagger 255/40s. I'll make sure and post my results in this thread.

FYI - my CR on non-staggered 255's feels good on both autox and track with my comptech bar on full stiff. My alignment hasn't been checked in over a year, but I did have max camber and caster and 0 toe front and rear.

For comparison purposes, my CR will always lose grip in the rear before the front. 255 non-staggered, max camber/caster in the front (no camber joint), -2.5 camber rear, 3/16 total toe in the rear.
