When rounding a corner at speeds of 50+ mph, it seems I have to really concentrate to make the car go exactly where I want. There seems to be a fraction of a second of a delay in turning and it doesn't matter if it's a left or right turn. It seems like it's been more noticeable since I got my Michelin Pilot Super Sports or maybe I just didn't notice it when I bought my Z which had Potenzas. I searched here for threads regarding this issue and didn't find any so maybe it IS just my imagination. Anyone else feel this way? It's really just an annoyance but it seems that I never felt an understeer in my '07 350Z.

Did you have VDC ON? VDC ON increases understeer a little going into high speed turns. If so? Try the same turn, under safe conditions with VDC OFF. From there assess the differences and mod accordingly.
My mods are Swifts, eibach alignment and sway kit. It helps understeer a lot. But i feel i can use better damping settings to increase control. So either Koni yellow, KWv3 or JIC Magic FLT2 will go on my car next if i can find them.. Had them on my G and they were awesome. Not sure which way to go when i do? That will have to wait till fall though. (house hunting)
