jackasssi Posted September 20, 2003 Share Posted September 20, 2003 Its impossible unless you convert to RWD. FWD has mad understeer while RWD has oversteer To help you would start by adding some good sticky tires, lower the vehicle with quality parts, add upper/lower tie bars, upgrade the rear sway bar. If your that intrested I would suggest you learn every thing you can about suspension. How it works why it works what modification due to handling etc. . . . . a good place to start is a boook called - How To Make Your Car Handle by Fred Puhn www.summitracing.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
optional187 Posted September 20, 2003 Share Posted September 20, 2003 i was told by a guy with a hatch who autocrosses that the rear strut tower bar helps out the most...while the front strut tower bar is realtively unnoticeable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shadoe1998 Posted September 21, 2003 Author Share Posted September 21, 2003 what is a car with rwd? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
..SSR.. Posted September 21, 2003 Share Posted September 21, 2003 RWD = rear wheel drive. Have you even driven an S2000 or do you just want it to handle like a sports car? I see you are asking about everything for your car, just do some simple research on the net. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDM Jackass2 Posted September 21, 2003 Share Posted September 21, 2003 Its impossible unless you convert to RWD. FWD has mad understeer while RWD has oversteer its called anti sway bars. you can have any car set up to understeer, oversteer, or be neutral. all it takes is anti sway bars. FWD only has "m4d und3urst33r y0" if you have tons of power, and no suspension mods. To help you would start by adding some good sticky tires, lower the vehicle with quality parts, add upper/lower tie bars, upgrade the rear sway bar. yeah thats pretty much right. i would keep the stock front sway bar, and use a comptech rear swaybar. If your that intrested I would suggest you learn every thing you can about suspension. by asking me. i'll tell you what to get. i like spending other people's money for them i was told by a guy with a hatch who autocrosses that the rear strut tower bar helps out the most...while the front strut tower bar is realtively unnoticeable. LMFAO dude your posts always make me laugh... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

..SSR.. Posted September 22, 2003 Share Posted September 22, 2003 i just want it to feel sporty. Thought so. Better drive an S2000 sometime before you say you want your car to handle like one, as some people don't like how they handle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
speedycivic Posted September 29, 2003 Share Posted September 29, 2003 suspension, tires, and f/r strut for a stiffer ride and you feel like you can still control your car when you're going over 100. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
