1. What makes a car handle great like the type r?
2. Can u just make any car handle great with all the braces you can put on a car, like the strut bars, tie bars, better suspension set up etc?
3. I have heard the double wishbone set up is much better than macpherson set up. Comparing how the integra type-r(double wish bone) and the RSX-S(macpherson). Do you agree? why? Anyone know the advantage and disadvantage of both?

The sum is greater than all of the parts...
1 - weight distribution - helps control rotation (not to mention total weight)
2 - braking power & modulation
3 - throttle response
4 - grip (tires + LSD)
5 - suspension (determines center of gravity along & rotation of car in cornering)
just a few thoughts

what makes dual wishbones so good is that as the suspension is pushed together it generates negative camber, witch in turn gives better grip when cornering. What happens to wheel angels with mcpherson i have no clue of... and guess what, my car has mcpherson
