Ok, here goes : when doing the restoration on my car, I upgraded it with Koni shocks, 550 lbs front springs and the gymkhana rear spring + rear sway bar (lightest aftermarket). I set the shocks to the hardest setting.
This proved to harsh on the road as it was (almost) rattling my teeth out on some roads.
This weekend I took the shocks out and reset the to the least harsh setting. This mainly has an effect on rebound.
Test drive was ok as for the harshness, but during hard acceleration in a twisty road she surprised me with some understeering.
I need to change some things to make it better balanced. Not sure what : heavier rear bar ? Setting shocks on one end a lighter harder ?
Thanks
