Default C-Stock AutoX Question Regarding Front Sway

Hey guys,

I'm currently running the stock V1 Touring rims with a 245/40 setup in the front and 245/45 setup in the rear for C-Stock AutoX. I have Koni Yellows with the later 350Z revised springs.

Obviously I'm running a square setup with the stock sways for now, but I was wondering if anyone has any experience running a square setup but with a larger front sway?

Did this induce more understeer? The whole goal for a square setup was to eliminate most of the stock lawyer understeer.

Thanks,

I have a front bar for you. It's a 35mm solid bar. It's cheap, too.

In 2005, Nissan increased the front anti-roll bar on the track model to 34mm, but I already had a Hotchkis set on order.

I preferably run 295s all the way around on stock v1 track wheels (same as what was delivered on my car), or 285s if I don't have 295s.

The only time I have understeer is if I enter a corner too quickly or it's wet.

You also have to remember that the increased the rear spring rate by around 100 pounds too.
