Default Kaaz 1.5 LSD users...

Hi guys, i have an ep3 with a Kazz 1.5 LSD.

Other mods are.

Progress 24mm ARB
Buddyclub N+
Roll centre adjusters
rear camber arms
Super pro castor bushes
Steering arm raiser

I'm suffering from understeer on turn in and in general until i put some throttle on and the diff does it's work which is obviously masking the actual issue.

Can anyone help me gain some provoked oversteer.

My tyres are Bridgestone RE070s 225/45/17

My alignment currently is:

Front
-3 camber
0.5mm toe out per side
3 degree caster

Rear
-2 camber
0.5mm toe in

Any suggestions welcome, have a track session Monday and really want to get to the bottom of this!

Cheers Rob

less decelerating lock, toe out in the rear, more rear bar, more rear spring, a shock adjustment, a tire pressure adjustment

Good Advice!
Do those changes slowly. test, test, test.
Be sure to log those changes so you know what you did when its all done.

That's quite a bit of geometry work you've done on the front end. Have you gone back and measured the bump steer curve? If not, do that before you do anything else.

Why so much camber in the rear? Why toe-in back there as well?

If anything, zero degrees camber and zero or ever-so-slight toe-out.

What are your springrates and how low is the car?
