Not having a DCCD, I don't understand why people have issues with understeer when they have one.

I do find that a little confusing, but if you operated the DCCD and had it set to green, that means the lock ratio is roughly 0%. Doesn't that mean you are basically totally rwd?

No, not rwd, it splits it 65:35 to the rear when green and prgressively goes to a 50:50 (well, almost) when moved up the orange lights.

Ah ok, so you don't even get close to 100% rwd, still 65% rwd and ppl complain of understeer. I don't get that.

My classic sure, it understeers all the time But then its mostly fwd. Can you not power oversteer in a JDM STi with DCCD?
