Lightbulb FC auto-adjusting suspension

Silly idea, but I'm a kid with little money and lots of time.

Would it be possible to set the rear AAS to "sport" damping while the front remains "normal" to set up a situation more conducive for oversteer?

I don't know how the actuators work. If I disconnect the fronts while in "normal", will they remain that way? Then I could set the rears via the buttons.

The AAS most likely does not work anymore. Your best bet would be to get some adjustable coilovers.

Nah, it seems to be in order. I get a second of current draw when I hit the switch. I disconnected the front actuators, and I get less current draw.

I'll see how this works out.

You can actually remove the aas motors and manually adjust the shocks with a screwdriver and set them as stiff as you want>counterclockwise=stiffer
