Looking a tyries car, i guess that there is some rubber rake in there already. the nose is pointing done normally. i would be looking at some different shockes in the front or up the spring poundage. From my experience with my 12, is that stiff up front and soft in the rear seems to work the best. Theer is a point however where too stiff will have a negative effect. [understeer]

yeh understeers entering corners. It still understeered entering corners when I put 205/50s on the back (from 225/50) but then had oversteer out of corners.

some smaller profile tires and a reduction in ride height should do it some good
so in short you have understeer when entering corners tyrie
my 1200 was understeering rather bad, changed tires and added some camber....say hello to oversteer, maybe its just coz i moved the old tires from the front to the back

datsun_guy the grille on my 120Y is just a late model one, pretty common. I have the front of my 120Y sitting on low king springs and stadard replacement 180B shocks I believe. The rear is standard height with some commodore shocks. 20mm front swaybar. When going into corners I can turn the wheel and the car just ploughs foreward until it loses enough speed then turns the corner. I'm running about 2-2.5deg neg camber but it stll scrubs the hell out of the outside edges of the tyres. Can this be fixed by changing components or am I just going too hard into corners? I believe the rear "roll centre?" may be too high causing the understeer? The rear is damn high when braking into a corner... heres a pic:

Or you can try JohnTaylors "tricky springs".

but if that's all you do you might just be treating the symptom rather than fixing the problem. if everything is in good condition and set up properly, you shouldn't get axle tramp unless the springs simply can't handle the torque being put through them.
check the other things first.
