R32 Understeer

[Lonewolf1983]

i found the understeer on the bora pretty bad, even with coilovers and a haldex controller, especially at the track.
cant get away from a fwd biased drivetrain with heavy engine out front, and engineered to be very safe under all conditions

Doesn't help that even the blue controller cuts power to the rear under brakes. Need the competition controller to remove that behaviour.

All that said, the "lead-tipped arrow" nature of the beast doesn't help, as you've suggested - you can't overcome the rules of physics - if you move something heavy quickly in one direction, it'll keep trying to move in that direction despite your efforts to turn the wheels

Every car will understeer into corners if you are hard on the throttle, it all depends on what you are doing.

As others have said,

Sticky tyres
Haldex
Rear sway bar/ Upper bar
will help

Stiffer suspension and lsds make a big difference too.
