With the rest of the suspension stock, I installed the Ohins and went out to a track event.

I'm sure my driving style plays a factor here but I much prefer the loose feeling of say the S2000 rather than this understeer.
At a temporary fix, I'm now running a rear sway bar from a ~2008 WRX and this helps rotation quite a bit. But my plan is to go back to the OEM rear sway bar and instead swap out the springs to something around 350F/425R (lbs/in).

I'm on Ohlins with standard spring rate but with previous setup was at close to 20mm drop from Ohlins specs and -3.4f/-2.7r camber on 235/40-17 toyo proxes ra1. This camber setup was recommended by @
CSG Mike and worked very well on two tracks, with mild oversteer. I have a new car now with Ohlins set to their spec height with -3.0f/-2.5r camber and 1/16 toe in for rear. Will try it out at WGI in early July. Camber made a lot of difference.
