RS2 handling/steering advice

[Dirtylouie]

that steering rack IS already on the RS2.it is not an upgrade for the S2/RS2.

Hey, pal, could you please share some details? Do you mean, that RS2 rack has only 2 full circles from left to right? and is SHORTER, then S2 one?

Strut tops seemed to make a big difference on mine.(alloy ones)

Ive read about bolts that had stretched on a bracket around the steering rack.
Is this common?
How do the stretch?

Also, thought I better add that my shocks still feel in good nick, so they arent letting me down.

Sharper handling and improved feedback is what Im after.
It doesnt feel like the car needs to be upgraded, just refreshened if you know what I mean?

coilovers will def improve the handling by far
than upgrade the subframe bushings, control arm bushings
and if you want quick steering response check out this rack from 034.. not sure if thie will fit the rs2 though

Ive spent ages searching the forum looking up how to improve the steering, turning and feedback of my RS2 but Im getting frastrated. I still havent got a car I can pick up by the scruff of the neck and throw down the road.

My RS2 is basically a standard daily driven car done 192,000kms which I have owned for the last 8 months. In the last two months I have replace the top mounts with OEM RS2 top mounts, fitted new Goodyear F1 GSD3 tyres (225/45/17) and had a new wheel alignment. These chances improved the car but I dont have the confidence in the mechanical grip and feedback to drive it hard.

What would you advise I change to improve the feedback and handling?

Is there a magic bullet?
