yea i'm completely stock, it would happen on exits and some curvy roads. to get it to oversteer i usually use the lift off technique which gets the rear unweighted and pushes it forward. then power out and the car feels almost like it's AWD.I have already tracked the car at a few SCCA / Autocross races, and been on some pretty awesome drives up in the mountains of VA and WV. I have only experienced understeer which is normal for a FWD car. I have yet to lose control of the car, but have had the tires screaming often, the traction control has kicked in multiple times (highly annoying, even if you turn it off it will automatically turn back on in less than 15 seconds or so), but I am very curious to know how you got oversteer out of the car (what were the driving conditions). Are you still 100% stock? The body roll on the car at stock height was a bit scary, even with the H&R sport springs the car still leans hard. I would really like a bigger rear sway bar for the car, and some of the TB Performance chassis braces too.
no, not always, car still oversteers by itselfSo you're intentionally creating the oversteer, gotcha. I was a little confused there for a sec.
Good to know. I used this technique on my celica and it works good, even resulted on a spin out going down hill.yea i'm completely stock, it would happen on exits and some curvy roads. to get it to oversteer i usually use the lift off technique which gets the rear unweighted and pushes it forward. then power out and the car feels almost like it's AWD.
