Default card gets sideways quick when speedshifting ??

okay if i speed shift the car gets sideways and out of shape quick and i was wondering if this was a suspension problem ?

i know drag radials will fix it but i dont want to drive around all the time on drag radials again

my last car was an a4 and spun straight as an arrow with regular radials on
the suspension on my car now is stock and i just want to know whatr the first most important thing is to replace . it aready has subframes

Keeping the rear-end centered under hard loading with a beefier panhard bar will help cure that problem. Get yourself a good single adjustable PHB and you should be fine.

I have them for sale here:

I suggest a good 4 wheel alignment. "Rear thrust line" should be no more than + or - 0.13 If rear jumps to the left add some + setting, if rear goes right add - setting
My SS likes +0.03, but I have added several extras( adj PHB, adj LCA, Relo brackets,adj TA/ body mount,Air bags, And of course Drag Radials

just my $0.02 Johnny
