Goal:
Increase oversteer (and don't murder the wallet)
Why:
Because. Fun. I like exploring grip limits at on/off ramps... I like hearing the throttle double-blip as I drop two gears throw her into a corner and let the sweet spot of the power band pull me out onto the straight... I like busting U's the proper way, with the a** swaying side to side. But alas - I have an M35x. Yes AWD.
The 'just get a RWD' comments are brewing in heads, but before fingers hit the keyboards I love my M and am going to run it till it dies. Then I'll resurrect her and do it all over again. My RWD is an AE86 GTS, were talkin my daily here, stay focused
Options:
A) Bigger rear anti roll?
B) Front strut?
C) Whatever the hell you did?
Specs:
2008 M35x
- OEM 19x8 sport wheels
- 255/40/19
- BC Racing coil overs - 1 finger gap front, 2 finger gap rear
- 20mm spacer front, 15mm spacer rear

I know there is a wealth of knowledge and opinion in these forums. Hoping to get some first hand experience with AWD M owners who have changed handling characteristics. I've driven sport and base models and the push outwards in cornering is significant when power gets sent to the front wheels. I know that I wont eliminate that completely, but any decrease would be an improvement! I don't want to waste money with trial and error so any insight (positive & negative) is welcomed here.
