Low and behold, had a rude shock on my way to the meetup today on Nicoll Highway, it was raining very heavy, and traffic was light, decided to have a bit of fun, switched to manual mode on the step and turned off the DTC. Got the tail out on a few turns for some fun, but the shocker came when I got HUGE understeer the moment I hit above 100km/h. There was just zero grip on the front tyres, zilch, zippo, I can turn the wheel 15-20 degrees above 100km/h and the car would go straight! It was crazy. Grip only returned to the fronts at somewhere about 95km/h.
My RFs are completely screwed, I'm off Hurry's sometime in the next couple of days to get the PS2s
