I have not plotted the bumpsteer. At some point I will buy/borrow a gauge to check it. For now I loaded/unloaded the front suspension and checked it that way. Its not the right way to do it but its good enough for now. It drives nice and I don't feel any bumpsteer. My next project is to address the rear bushings. The stock ones have seen better days and its starting to annoy me when I hit a bump. I ordered the whiteline diff bushings and have already changed to trailing arm bushings. I am not trying to decide what route to go for the control arms and toe links.

Hey, what pilot bearing did you use on your flywheel?
I had a stock type needle pilot bearing machine in my aluminum flywheel and started rethinking it since that bearing has a seal on a normal RX7. I assume you keep some grease in it or at least keep out dirt.

I used the stock RX7 bearing and just left a bunch of grease in it.
