Has anyone done the engine swap on the Beetle yet? If so please help, it seems broken.

Hi there, I wa\s wondering if anyone else had done the engine swap on the beetle, I was luckey enough to get it in the roulette and after installing it, and a few other upgrades I took the car to the track.

It just doesn't turn to one side. It seems ok in one direction with no steering to the other, until it works in the other and then no steering the way it originally worked!

I like to think I know what I am doing with this stuff and tried some of the common beetle tuning methods, like adding ballast to the nose but nope, car feels broken.

I was just wondering if this was just me or if others had experienced this and solved it?

Ok...

Apologies for the double post...

Went back to it after posting this and I think maybe the ride heightr was too low and the wheels were fouling with the body? Rising the ride height seems to have made it drivable at least.

Something is amiss with ride height in the game currently. Opinions are everywhere on how to deal with it, lol.

I've been finding near dead center of the slider, the 50% middle, seems to avoid any issues.
Look around though, theres a post about ride height around here somewhere. Might want to take a quick read through peoples responses.
Good luck man ^^

Edit; its right Here
