Did you check out the faq for details on the adjustment? If you only adjust the steering at that one point, you may make things worse from what I understand...just a thought.

Pleae don't try to adjust the steering without doing it RIGHT. Follow the mazspeed tutorial to the letter or you'll regret it. Properly setting the preload is very important for any lasting adjustment.
