Holy Understeer!

My lowly 100% stock settings keep me in control on the streets. We're perpetually stuck behind suv/cuv drivers here in Portland, so it's rare to actually enjoy any corners, BUT, is the conscensus that aside from tire choice, is the front sway bar the next best thing?

I actually like the compliance of the stock suspension / or have just learned to live with it

If you're not planning on going to coil overs, get the stiffest front sway bar you can find...Hotchkis. Body roll will reduce but you'll soon start to see that on a staggered wheel/tire setup the car will still understeer somewhat. Switching to a square wheel/tire setup will pretty much get rid of that and your eyes will be opened to a whole new world, this was how the engineers really meant for this car to be driven.

Anyway, I couldn't agree more about the compliance of the stock suspension. It really is better than most people acknowledge and in terms of performance, there's a lot to be had there before claiming that the OEM struts and springs are the bottle neck.
