I am all for making one change at a time and seeing where it gets me. I did just that with my car, all other changes from stock asside, switched out stock sways to GMG sways (kept stock droplinks) and back to the track. A NIGHT AND DAY difference, great improvement, and there is room to change more, I am on middle setting of BOTH front and rear, guessing the stiffness relationship front to rear is much different from stock on those settings, ie stiffer rear to front than before. Single change got me 1 sec a lap, that to me was MASSIVE! Plus now I imagine I'll get more time out of my front tyres than before too..

Yea but...

Mine is setup with ZERO toe out/in front and rear, and I LOVE it, along with the -2.5 rear and -2.9 front camber setup up with the low side of a GT2 rideheight. I'm running MPSCs which like more negative camber than say an R888 and I love it. My street tires, which are Michelin PS RIBS seem to be OK, on the street driving I do. But, not everyone likes that "nervous" feel...

But you DO NOT need anything fancy to reduce understeer.

All you need is an alingment.

Get some toe out the front and toe in at the rear
get a good negative alingment. I'll find my spec sheet
and BAM, i can throttle steer/drift the car like a gokart,
with very little understeer...... toe in at the rear and out at the front
is not for the faint heart.
