Tight Suspension
Problem: Whenever I hit speed in the upper Rpm region (over 170kph) my car feels loose. The car feels really light and acts like it wants to swerve all over the road. It's really frightening. I tried taking my car to the max speed but this loose feeling just gets me scared. What else can I do to tighten up the suspension....Anybody? I've got on GC Coil Overs and Koni shocks.

Have you thought about strut tower braces or lower tie bars to stiffen it up? if you havent, think of that first and then go from there.

it's not the suspension. it's your aerodynamics. i assume this is an Accord, hence your name. if so, it wasnt built for high speeds. the front lip and underbody arent designed to move the air out from under the car... so at high speed, the air settles and actually lifts the car up a bit, resulting in loose handling.
get an EFFECTIVE ground effect kit... most on the market are for looks only. possibly a splitter for the front, underbody spoiler, and rear spoiler to get even downforce over the whole length of the car. |

another thing you might want to check out is if you camber is out of whack. my camber is off alilttle bit and it sometimes pulls to the left at higher speeds.
