...especially the table 2/3rds of the way down the page ...

So to cancel your under steer are you going to adjust your front ARB to it's softer position as an experiment, or just wait for the super stiff rear to maintain a softer front/stifer rear? (as it were)

are you going to adjust your front ARB to it's softer position as an experiment,

Did that a while ago Adam - experiment lasted less than a week before I put the front ARB back on the stiff setting (just felt too wallowy at the front on soft setting) .... it's all in a previous thread somewhere...

So .... with front set to stiff, and rear set to "super" stiff then I reckon I'll get rid of the excess understeer while still maintaining my stiff front end (ooooo-errrrrr!) ..... super stiff rear ARB is VERY GOOD! (I've driven a car with this mod and it is much more precise than the norm)

Going to wait for super-stiff mod!

(Masonic handshake) Hello Jules, yes it has to be said that an uber stiff rear anti-roll bar allied to a fairly stiff front bar makes for a more neutral handling experience.

I too have driven an S4 with a similar setup, it was a revelation!

Just watched this video of Tiff's assessment of the B5 RS4, makes interesting viewing . . .
