50/50 Weight Distribution?

That's what I mean, but I figured it's already a tad nose-heavy, so 50/50 is about the most I could do.

Interesting, I've always thought of the coilover adjustments as symmetrical until now. You can tell I'm new at building haha.

I'll take what seems to be the common advice here, don't worry about weight bias, just shed weight everywhere and adapt with the car. When I get coilovers(and money) I'll get it corner balanced. Thanks Everyone!

If you wanted to reduce oversteer, you could simply get a bigger sway bar in the front. (This is relatively inexpensive). Example: http://www.stranoparts.com/partdetails.php?PartID=928&CategoryID=235&ModelID= 36

However and keep in mind: Having more oversteer than all other cars in my class (2 liter displacement slalom/autocross) is apparently giving me a time-advantage over front wheel driven cars (Renault Clio RS, Honda Integra DC2) even in the rain. Besides, it is way, way more fun!
