Thank you from a 964 C4 owner...
I've been lurking here for awhile and haven't been participating very much.
But i've followed some advice from some posts here and thought I would share.
from this thread https://rennlist.com/forums/964-forum/146637-sway-bar-differences-adjustable-vs-non-adjustable.html I learned that some of the understeer could be tamed by adding a larger diameter swaybar. The reason I didn't go for the recommended 19mm adjustable one is that I got the 21mm for free.
I'm a cheap bastard I know...
Anyway we have real winter here in Stockholm, Sweden with 20 centimeter of snow and the larger swaybar has transformed the handling!
Where the car used to plow forward it now rotates around its center almost like a mid engined car by simply easing off a bit on the throttle.
Thank you guys!
from this thread https://rennlist.com/forums/964-forum/106325-green-pdas-activation-light-in-dash-gauge-how-activate.html I learned that I could easily activate the green PDAS warning light in the dash gauge.
Really cool!
And this was one thing I was thinking of doing in a more expensive way by adding a light in the tacho wired from the centre console...
As I said, we have lots of snow here and It's a pleasure watching the green light turn bright as I accelerate hard.
On my way to work I saw it lit when accelerating hard in third gear!
I guess I should have my brains checked, I guess a sensible person would back off when that light turns green but I keep provoking it to light up!
Anyway, thanks a lot guys!
