who is puttin on the event?

Well that really won't help the oversteer he is getting. Right now what is happening is the car probably tries to drive to much as he goes into corners, then the rear tries to drive itself around. Am I correct?
oops, sorry i meant to say i have bad understeer, where my front isnt trying to go around the corner, it wants to go straight

You should drive my car then. No bumpsteer problem, and I don't have a bumpsteer kit on my car. (Of course my front end is 3/4" forward offset.)

Yes, they made a huge difference. The car tacks so much better no than before. It doesn't feel twitchy at all, just made it more fluid.

Ok, the coilover kit would delete your stock springs. You take them out and do away with them. Coilovers, spring over shock. So you use a much smaller diameter spring. You need springs for it to work.
