Apart from suspension blocks and springs plus a front end brace, I haven't changed anything to stiffer parts etc, running on carpet, on foams with additive, never felt the need to. I didn't even put sway bars on either, and to be honest, it is the best car I have driven, it does everything I want in a car.
I suggest anyone buying one, buy the Pro and put the right suspension blocks and springs on and try it before you go splashing the cash.... Only thing I would like to replace, is the rear diff, mainly to keep the oil on the inside of it more often.

I made so many changes Wednesday night trying to get it to hook up, I'm not sure.
I think . . . .
White springs in the front (had yellows at first)
Yellow springs in the rear (had blues and then whites before dropping back to yellows)
40wt shock oil front and rear
100,000 diff oil in the front
900 diff oil in the rear
5mm ride height
3mm droop front and rear
0 toe in the front
-2 camber front and rear
This is in VTA class so it's a 25.5 with a 4.34 FDR

Put in blues in the rear and yellows up front. Adjust your damper to preload about 5mm all around.
If all that fails, try to mess with gearing. Increase the fdr to around 4.5 or so.
Maybe the body roll / chassis flex is causing the additional traction due to tweak.

The rear is too loose. Try heavier oil. Set the rear camber to 0* .what is your rear toe?

I'll switch those around and try it with 2.5 toe in the rear.
