These Coilovers are designed for street comfort so that does make a lot of sense. Problem is even when I brake earlier and the car is more settled before turn in the car still oversteers.

My guess is the softness suspension is causing a lot of weight transfer mid term, overcoming available grip already compromised by the weak alignment

But I’ll let the track rats chime in
Yeah I know the SPL's are the be all end all but they're just extremely overkill for my use case. The car is a daily that I want to use to get better as a driver on the track with. I've spoken with a few guys that race in a Nissan series in Socal that use these arms(modded) with good results. I'm not building a race car so I don't think mind giving up caster adjustment and spherical bearings/joints for cost/comfort. Basically trying to build a well balanced car.

With that said I'm not adverse to stepping up the spring rates a little to get off the bump stops if that is what's going on in the rear here.
