So it’s something else going on that makes the Z have less under steer with a stiffer front bar.

yeah exactly my confusion. Also would be interesting to know how many people with stock suspension or stock balance spring rates have done the roll bar thing. Or if they experienced the decrease in understeer with wildly different than stock balanced spring rates front/rear.

I don't think i'm going to really find an answer i guess. Like it would be easier to just buy suspension and tires and then test different sway bar setups to see what is most balanced.
But honestly I want to know why more than I care about the resulting handling.
