This is correct. Ive tryed it before without lsd, and it snaps u back or like what your saying, oversteering. If u get a j30. i can almost guarantee it wont do that anymore.

Like tons of others have told you it is the diff. Welded to start, have someone who knows what they are doing weld your diff please! When you can afford it look at getting a two way. You can learn allot with just a welded dif. Look at going to a local sponsored track/ skid pad event. You will learn more that day than you will all year in a parking lot. Use your money to upgrade suspension buy track time and buy tires. Always suspension before power!
Now for my little service announcement...Several guys with way more experience than you have tried to help, and you have spit in their face. I have run across a couple of kids like you...one has destroyed seven perfectly good 240's because he will not listen. He has been very lucky that he has not hurt or killed anyone. Do you see where I am going?
Good luck with your quest, and I hope to see you at the track someday.

Damn guys he's a noob and just got hurt feelings. We dont have to be that mean ;-) That said... shut up and take their advice... ie listen to that guy thats an instructor! Can you really argue with someone thats knows that much...
maybe your name should be "little curb hopper" Damn I got mean too. Pherhaps this guy understands now.. Dont screw with people trying to help...

Take it as a lesson don't get jaded just be more open to advice.

On some of the forums I've been on I've seen this or something similar, it turns into a mess and becomes a vendor war that always ends up ugly.

try a different setting on ur coilovers, i had megan tracks too not bad for a beginner i will suggest you to go full hard on the rear and full soft on the fronts and change the front camber to negative.

i understand your input...but from my experience....

the driver, the car, and the parts, make every scenario different. everyone in here can make recommendations....he is the only one that will know what works....

the best bet....is taking it to an event where a instructor can properly evaluate what you have, and what you need.

any other info isn't necessary until he does so...and any other questions are unecessary until so. ;D

removing the front sway bar and getting the same set of springs all the way around would be as if keeping the car the same...sway bar prevents roll, and matching springs prevent roll, so you are throwing one away to pick up the other...any video of this tested out? i'd like to see why you recommended this.

what would happen if an inexperienced driver got matched spring rates, and a thick rear sway bar? i am just curious, cuz i don't know shit home boiii, i was raised by a pack a wolves, and all i know how to do is skeet skeet.
