Hi Thaboomer
It's not just the Lancer that understeers in GT3 - it's a generic problem with all the 4WD vehicles in the game.
The first step towards trying to deal with the problem would be to get a Fully Custom Suspension package as that will give you greater control over the settings for Dampers, Camber and Toe and a wider range of adjustment for the Spring Rates, Stabalisers and Ride Height.
Once you have that you can start dialing in the settings to reduce the Understeer problem you're having (softening the Front Stabaliser, higher Front Camber, Stiffer Rear Damper B etc).
Without a little more detail it's hard to be of more help for now - where are you finding the Understeer to be most obvious, corner entry or exit?

just uninstall the vcd

See the post I made on the lancer thread previous to this one. Use that setup it will work on all the lancer cars pretty well.
The gist is to stiffen the rear of the car to increase roll stiffness at the back and make that sucker turn.

it is my opinion that stock, the lancer evo 6 rs oversteers during braking and understeers during accel, take advantage of the braking oversteer, to get the car around the corner quickly, then punch on the gas to understeer the car into an ideal line.
Hi. Have just started playing GT3. I now own the Evo 7 RS with close to 600 BHP, Lightweight Stage 3, Custom gearbox, susp., LSD and VCD. I faced a similiar problem initially but managed to improve on it to a certain extent.
Running a numerically larger final gear ratio helps the car to slow down faster and will bog down less into the turn. Use more aggresive camber settings in front---1.8 - 2.0 and 0.9 - 1.0 behind. If u have a VCD, reduce the power distributed to the front to about 35%. Run stiffer springs and sway bars in front and behind. front springs must be stiffer than rear springs.
Try and let me know.

Hi, RADWerX, and welcome to GTP! A pretty good answer there but I have two comments to make:
1) Camber can go as high as 3.0 and sometimes 3.5 degrees in front before it really begins to hurt traction at the front.
2) Generally, you want to reduce the swaybar (stabilzer) at the end with the problem. If the car is understeering, soften the front swaybar or stiffen the rear a notch. If the car oversteers, stiffen the fron or soften the rear a notch.
Welcome aboard!

Hi1
ThanX for the warm welcome.
I am running stiffer swaybars behind than in front, with -0.5 toe-in behind and 0.5 toe-in in front. Camber is not 1.8 in front and 1.0 behind. VCD gives 35% torque to the front. Rear down force is a minimum.
This was b4 I read ur message. Seems to help. But still have problems with Trial Mountains and the APEX MR-S track car. Suspect it may have a lower weight/power ratio than my evo. Or it may be because I am using the standard sony game controller... ...
Anyway, already got my R34 GTR in Sonic silver and 1039 bhp. Does the 1/4 in 9.6s, maxes out at 200 mph a handles OK but the brakes dun seem to be able to haul the bugger to cornering speeds in time..... Am already running Lightweight package Stage 3... any solutions?
