The biggest improvement I did to my 24v Sapph was replace the front hubs with 3dr hubs. The car rolled less, had less understeer and felt much more direct in the steering wheel.


Another thing is the rear beam. The standard rear beam makes the car understeer as well. Change it for a 6 degree beam and it will be better. Another simple change is the rear arb. I have a 21 mm one from a Scorpio 24v fitted.


My Sapph also has a BOA fitted and is on Ahmed springs and Koni shocks and with the above mods it handles very nice.
