The poor man's GT3 RS, but in a good way. My first car was an EG, I had it for 9 years, bone stock apart from Bilstein B12 suspension kit. Still the car I had the most fun with, ever. It's a massively underrated car in my eyes, the ricer image doesn't do it justice. Double wishbone suspension front and rear, go-kart like handling, good power to weight ratio, great looks. I really like how you can see the owner is thoroughly enjoying every second of it. Proud of his car, and rightly so. Awesome content.

Left foot braking is pretty pointless outside of offroad / rally. If you can't trail brake and control load without using your left foot, your footwork isn't the problem.

[@GrilledPixeIs]

​@@ttt69420That doesn't make any sense, they don't use left foot braking just for trail braking, left foot breaking helps to modulate the throttle and can gain tenths per lap

[@GrilledPixeIs]

@@ttt69420 have you ever heard of weight transfer? Current wrc driver left foot brake even v8 supercar drivers at time. It's because it helps to turn the car into the apex. How do you expect misha to get into a car and in a minute be able to push it to its limit?? He drives so many different cars each day and uses just a line that works for them all, it's also only a track day so there others cars. He's also won the nls 6 hour so he must have good lines ay?

Rear roll centre correction kit would probably be a good idea to reduce the understeer. They lose a load of rear roll stiffness relative to be front when lowered.

[@lobuk516]

alignment, springs and diff would be what i looked at before roll center correction bits. you can always raise the car to get a good roll center. push on entry is most likely front toe :P

[@stefanroseEP3]

@@lobuk516 why is corner entry mainly front toe? Steering response yeah, but not actual car balance. corner entry car balance is more to do with springs rate, roll rate and rear toe. as i said, correcting the roll centre will increase the effective rear roll stiffness without adding physically stiffer springs, which gives you a more compliant car while having the desired balance. People hardly ever correct roll centre when they lower a car then they chase the handling with the stuff you said. Fix the actual problem then tune the balance with the tools you mentioned.
