Hey guys,
I have an Sc400, obviousley automatic until this january.
I do have an open diff, but im still able to do donuts,
and drift. left turns a lot better than right.

Recently I put on my coilovers, JIC Magic in the front,
HKS in the back, heres my problem, I know camber
changes when you drop your car, and it firms up a lot
because of the coils, but DAMN it is so hard to get this
car sideways now, It used to be a nice easy flick,
now it is close to impossible for me, is it to much camber?

Ill post pics of how low the car is, but I thought coils
would make it much easier, should I just get an alignment
by professionals? thanks so much guys,
I was just wondering if anyone else had this prob.

When your car is firmer, it will be harder to break grip. Now you'll need more power or you'll need to loosen the suspension up in key areas.

The firmness comes in handy when you throttle off during a drift or transition to another turn as you'll almost instantly regain grip (especially with good tires).

 

Do you have the align specs? We run 1.5-2 deg front and .5 rear. Power and a strong lsd will make the biggest change for you. You can get the diff welded for a cheap fix. A kaaz 2 way is like Christmas but costs a bit.
Each driver has his/her likes on their car. I like my sc's suspension loose, I can flip the old girl easy without the need for much power.
Many things go into a setup, find what you like.
