Default Understeer!!!

I have a '96 jap WRX with standard suspension and am suffering with understeer. Would up-grade suspension cure this? Being an ex skyline R32 2WD Turbo I am great believer in RWD, does any know a UK company that makes RWD coversion?

Most cars will understeer, its natural and built in to let you know how far you can push the car.
You can change the suspension set up and the likes, just have a look at Webby's topics on subaru modifying

I think Option Motorsport do Impreza rear drive conversions, from what I have heard it is a simple process of removing some bolts!

Reducing understeer is not too hard, but does involve some basic mods to the front end.
Irradicating understeer is a bit harder but can be done leaving the car very neutral (and with a 'wooden' feel to the steering).
