steering wheel? But not by much? So there is no adjustment that can be made in caster or something else?
without caster/camber plates, the caster is not adjustable. You CAN get "crash bolts" for the front struts to get additional negative camber though. This will not affect the steering ratio either
I just find it a little difficult stepping into my Dinan 3 after driving my TTZ. I track the Z, and I can only imagine how different the BMW will be when I track it. BMWs have good feedback, but their steering ratios make them feel a little vague and on-center.
I understand how the ratios can make them feel "vague", but what does "on-center" mean in your statement?
Usually when one cites vagueness, they mean vague on-center, the vagueness is only when going straight, or on -center.
the M3 has an admittedly "slow" ratio compare to most other performance cars. I am used to the variable ratio from GM's finest and it is quite a stretch when autoxing the M3 to have to turn the wheel so much. However *I* have just accepted that shortcoming and have learned to drive it that way. Yes it is also a PITA to have to turn the wheel so much just to make simple turns on the street too, and I would like a quicker ratio as well.
I also imagine if you didn't know how much better ratios others have, you wouldn't think it was unusual or a negative, however I do.
