Re: Rear wheel steering pic request
I think you would only be able to see this in video format... although I still don't fully understand how it works

Re: Rear wheel steering pic request
Maybe an autoXer (^) would make a little vid of it in action

Re: Rear wheel steering pic request
That wasn't very dramatic....
There are a bunch of videos of preludes that show off true 4ws really nicely (Commercial - In Action)
Or for those who remember the old commercials for trucks with Quadrasteer ( Parking - Highway )

Re: Rear wheel steering pic request
One day, I will make a video of it with the camera stuck to the side of my car. I have everything setup really stiff for Auto-x, but the 22mm swaybar, and with all of my bushings replaced with Energy Suspension, it corners ALOT sharper than my stock GS. It feels like the car bends almost in half.

Re: Rear wheel steering pic request
I know the Mx6 and 626 have the 4WS option, but I never thought the Mx-3 had it, and I don't remember anything in the 323's and Protege's having 4WS, just 4WD

Re: Rear wheel steering pic request
First gen Mazda 626 and Mx-6 had them, even in North America. It wasn't a popular option, but you couldn't get the adjustable suspension AND 4WS, it was one or the other. The second gen Mx-6 (not sure about the 626) had it but only in Japan.projectmx wrote:i've never heard of any mazda having 4 wheel steer i'm guessing this is a misunderstanding somehow
I'd love to find an old 626 with 4ws, but it's hard to find them at all now adays, never mind with 4WS, never mind with WORKING 4WS

Re: Rear wheel steering pic request
We have passive AWS that engages with lateral force. Mine is tuned with Energy Suspension bushings to be more active. I can definately feel it, and it trips me out every time. It's like having that dude on the back of a ladder fire truck steering the rear wheels. My back end won't come loose. The fronts drift first.

It's called understeer. It happens on FWD cars.fowljesse wrote:My back end won't come loose. The fronts drift first.
