Perhaps the celica would smoke me stock for stock, but we shall never know:hiding:
There is a point where my car will go from understeer to oversteer when I'm in the sweet spot of the motor in 2nd and 3rd gear in the twisties. Then there's also that point(before upgrading suspension) where the back end has a mind of it's own:rolleyesMinisterofDOOM wrote:I took the '04 out and pushed her a bit yesterday. I did notice a bit of understeer while under throttle. Nothing severe enough to cause problems, just enough that I had to adjust a bit to compensate. At times, partially due to torque steer (yeah...it's hard to explain), it almost feels like the car is oversteering like a RWD while cornering under very large amounts of throttle. Considering the amount of torque steer produced by this car, I am glad that Nissan didn't make the same mistake with the Maxima that Acura did with the TL's front LSD.
