95 CIVIC HANDLING LIKE S%&*T
I have a 95 2dr civic coupe that has been lightly modified. It has eibach sportline springs and kyb gr2 shocks, a strut bar, and 17 inch wheels. Whenever I whip the steering wheel with any force what so ever it steers like crap. It has the worst understeer I've ever witnessed in a car. I don't know if it's just because by previous car was an s13 and it handled really well, but I have to fix this somehow. What kinds of things can help out my steering???

its a FWD car..of course there is gonna be understeer....why would you "whip" the wheel around anyway? I guess I would recomend getting some good tires, get rid of those 17s, and get a rear sway bar

I'm just not used to it. I used to have an 89 integra but it wasn't as bad. I don't really whip the steering wheel but I like to have that immediate response when I want to go somewhere, especially to the left and then a quick right for instance. What brands are good for sways?

Still here... sorta...
What model Civic is it? EX? DX?
If it's an EX, you might already have a front sway bar on there. If not, you can get a Suspension Techniques kit or upgread your LCAs to EX or Integra to put on a GSR set or GSR front with ITR rear.
I have a '95 DX sedan with GSR front and ITR rear. Great setup I'd say.
