Need coilover alignment help!

Alrighty guys need some help. Just installed my coilovers not long ago. Im pretty familiar with g35's suspension and done a few installs so i dont think that anything would be loose but my car is cornering horribly. I cannot corner anywhere near aggressive without the car understeering to the point of abs kicking on. Pls help me troubleshoot thanks in advance. Car has been aligned twice btw

Alignment is almost "Rocket Science!" lol

Springs or coilovers aren't the answer to making your G handle well, you need a quality camber kit like SPL to bring your alignment back to OE specs! After installing the front and rear camber kit ask the alignment tech how close to OE specs your set up is, and get a print out! Next step in making your G handle those corners flat is sway bars and adjustable endlinks like Power Grids. Quality rubber will also help your rides abilities like Michelin Pilot Super Sports...sticky tires with a UTQG (wear rating) of 300 which will give you good mileage.

Ive just got adjustable camber arms and strut bar im on 235 35 19 up front and 255 35 rear the coilover dampening is set about 5 clicks from soft all around. Im thinking i may need to raise up the car a little bit as well as make it a bit stiffer
