EP3 has Mugen Sport Suspension, heavy springs in the rear.

My rather amateurish observation is that I am more comfortable hitting a hard bump like a gater w/the DC2 suspension. I seem to have an instinctive feel for where the car's going to be headed when it comes down, and I don't have that comforting feeling w/the EP3.

For whatever that's worth, which isn't much.
I was looking at the mugen sport suspension, and they relocate the steering arm mounts apparently. In the effort to reduce "bump steer", which If I'm not mistaken is NOT a steering problem from hitting a bump? yes/no?

Mugen also has some front LCAs, I wonder if they addressed the issue of that bushing/bearing presented in the H-T post.
