Satisfied?
If you take two identical cars, give one stiff springs in the front and softer springs in the rear it's going to understeer more than the other one, all other things being equal (which isn't guaranteed...I don't have the rollbar thicknesses at hand)
FWIW, this, the interior, and money are likely all Toyota really contributed to the BRZ/86.
in the world of trying to get fwd commuter shitpiles to corner, the rule of thumb- stiffer in the rear = more oversteer generally holds.
for a balanced rwd sports car, its not nearly as straightforward and a lot of things contribute and the reverse can sometimes be true.
just look at the SM suspension 700lb front, 325 lb rear, 27mm front, 15mm rear
that shit does NOT understeer
