before I bought my 340 I bought a few Toyotas. I love the Celica, but the 340 might change all that.

I've decided that I'm going to keep my 360 - because I just frickin love it so much
So - it's going to be my work car. The family can ride around in the monster truck. This means I no longer have to make family car compromises with my Volvo

My thoughts precisely
I'm a bit nervous about changing the suspension setup though - it works really good the way it is. How does stiffening up the front end affect understeer?

The less roll you have from each end promotes that ends __steer, so too much front spring stiffness would bring you to understeer land. I keep meaning to try and learn the maths to work out what spring rates would be idle but theres always more interesting things going on
Considering how saggy most 300 suspension is, I'd guess it could go a fair amount more, but without doing the maths it's a going to be trial and error?

No need for trial and error...
