FC rear wheel steer help

hey, I was just wondering if the rear wheel steer is really worth it. how much does it add to handling ability? its kind of unpredictable, but mine are kind of finicky. I don't remember how much they sold the solid bushings for, but I don't remember it being too much. I'm most likely going to be replacing the bushing, its just a matter of solid or dtss or whatever its called.

I personally can't stand the rear-steer...it annoys the hell outta me. Its more apparent after you stiffen up your suspension. I think thats because more weight is transferred to the bushing because there is less body roll with stiffer suspension. If I had the money right now, thats one of the things I would take care of.

DTSS is not reccommended when taking your car to the limits. I would eliminate them with the RB bushings, rear toe eliminator bushings. They run about $50.00 plus shipping I believe. If you need a set I'll see what I can do. I have a couple of sets in stock.

Thanks, Rishie

Yeah, I try to help when I can. I am a RB distributor and this is something that's cheap and easy to stock without dipping into a loan, like exhaust systems. hehe.

Can't wait for you to get your FC Node. Hurry up and graduate so you can finally start pimpin' ho's for a living. Just get that degree and get the car. Once you got that degree, nobody will give a **** what you do to make a living.

See ya, Rishie

You gotta get rid of this, no questions asked. It will spin your *** around when you don't want it to. Countersteering is not as responsive and often results in overcorrection
