i lol'd a few times reading this thread.

ive never experienced snap over steer with the s2000
and i do beleive that snap over steer is more dominant in Mid engine cars, and the reason for this is because of the weight transfer when you begin a drift.

ive owned 2 turbo mr2s before my s2000 and this car is a dream to drive compared to a mid engine rwd.
i also had a rwd corolla, that was front heavy and didnt have much snap over steer issues either
the s2000 is extremly balanced and is relitively easy to correct

Isn't an AP1's snap oversteer issues a direct result of toe changes mid-corner? The outer wheel generally experiences toe in while the inner wheel experience toe out...causing the ass to slip out? Yes? Simple suspension tweaking can squelch this problem.
what kinda suspension tweaks do you recommend?
