Question

Can anyone help ?

I understand that Scooby in general suffer from understeer, but with a geometry mod this is over come and I understand from the guy I got the car from this has been done.

The car doesn't seen to suffer understeer, but I do get the backend out, or at least it get a bit twitchy, what I want to know is, is this a characteristic of the 5DR i.e. chassis flex and will a rear brace resolve this.

The current setup is standard STi Dampers and Ebach Springs From Brace and Geometry mod

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I've got a 5 door with Eibachs, I would recommend getting the geometry checked first - despite what the seller told you.

Cheers

Yes get it checked but also look at your driving style. I had the same suspension set up on my 5dr and it was great for our roads.
