    Prank, I've got the same problem.. Horrible understeer. Whiteline have discontinued the rear sways. H&R or Eibach seem to be the go.
    They are just so expensive those brands. I'm keen to try this haldex thingo but worried about side effects.

    That thread further feeds my scepticism. I might go rear sway first.

    Agreed. I did have some concern regarding the internal clutch pack, the whole thing just sounded a little too good to be true.

    I did however find the below which sounds good.

    I wouldn't buy any after market kit until the existing suspension components have been checked and any worn bushes/joints replaced, followed by a wheel alignment. At the same time check your tyres, incorrect pressures, cheapo tyres etc, can make a huge difference to handling. Also, are you sure your rear end is working? Can you spin the front wheels?

    My Bora 4mo is now running std R32 suspension (shocks and springs), R32 front lower rear control arm bushes (solid v the very flexible std 4mo ones) and a euro spec rear R32 sway bar, R32 Mags with Michelin Pilot Sport 3's.

    But with all that stuff how is your understeer?

    I did the ECS refresh kit about 5 years ago (minus wishbones). Standard sway Bars (F&R), Bilstein B8s with eibach springs.

    Wheel alignment is good and I'm wearing Continental Contimax tyres which are unreal.

    There's one set of traffic lights on my home commute, when you go through them you go hard left. Accelerating through that hard left is horrible! The understeer is just nuts. It's my test corner when I do anything to my suspension.

    Mine will understeer If I chuck it into a corner and then stamp on the throttle, it's a front drive bias set up with a heavy lump up front. I find if I feed the power on through a corner it grips like a limpet. Slow in, fast out works well.

    I'm running the UM tune in the haldex, UM are a very good company to work with never had a problem with them (you have to ship your haldex controller to them). Love the tune aswell not that i've had the best chance to test it.
