Adjusting sways to induce a little oversteer?

You need softer spring rates in the front, to maximize traction and you need more camber. Something on the lines of -2.5 would suffice.

 

Your stiff spring rates in the front are not allowing you to oversteer.

 

Sorry if I missed it, but what coilovers are you running?

Ross, how about an update?

 

I'm also surprised you found it balanced at only 1.5 up front. I run 2.5/1.7 on the street and I'm looking for just a tiny bit more oversteer.

This is interesting. I hate understeering cars and I've been trying to get rid of understeer after installing coilovers and getting an alignment. I tightened up the 20mm AVO RSB which helped a bit. I still had a dead spot in the front steering though. What seems to have worked best was lowering the front of the car .25" relative to the rear. I also added some preload to the rear and softend the rear damping. It is more neutral now. I can get lift throttle rotation and then accelerate fairly neutrally. I can also use the accelerator to push out the rear if I want.
