i saw a video clip of a civic was changing lanes and snapped back when the driver saw a car in the lane he was going for. His suspension must of been badly messed with since that small snap made his rear end become the front and he ended up on the meadian. Funny to look at... i remember when i tried everything to get the back to slide around on a civic and nothing but the e-brake worked.

So the kits from eibach and ST should be well balanced? And I think u can adjust the rears to get a bit of oversteer if desired?

Thats called snap over-steer and is almost impossible to recover from even for a pro driver!

My ST rear sway is 6-way adjustable

wait...so...since we got a lotta understeer...i thought adding a rear sway would make it more neutral...which is what i want...to get rid of understeer...so rear and front would make it even more oversteer?

you were on to something, but you lost it in the end. . . making the rear stiffer will make the car more neutral, the stiffer the rear and softer the front, the more oversteer you can produce. if you stiffen both the front and the rear, the car will be super stiffer, and you will still have a bit of under steer, depending on how thick you went in the front. My car has a 23mm front sway bar(DX) and a 19mm rear swaycar (TL-S) it is very neutral through turns and infact has a bit of oversteer if driven properly.
