i'm on front,Compression-5 turns(from softest) Rebound 5 turns,Rear C-3 turns,R-1 turn.
rear still feels very firm,only over humps.Cornering wise not testing on track yet.
So uphill and downhill affects the weight distribution so i feel understeer is normal.How do i go fast in a uphill corner then? More -Camber in front?

It really depends how serious you want to get here. 2 degrees for negative camber in the front, and no toe, or just the slightest bit of toe in should do it for alignment.

Im assuming the car is understeering on power off the corner? If it is you need to stiffen the rear compression to keep more weight on the front wheels, also you can stiffen the front rebound a bit, and this will also help with body roll. Adjust those two until the car starts to turn better. You will want to make most of your adjustment to rear compression and fine tune it with front rebound.

Given that he seems to be complaining about a stiff rear end, I think in this case stiffening the rear to bring weight distribution forward would work for the uphill climb but doesn't improve the daily ride comfort.

TS will have to decide whether he wants comfort or performance and live with the compromise.

The fact that he has everything at basically full soft and is complaning about the ride tells me he didnt know what he was getting into anyway. We still dont know what coilovers they are, or if they have adjustable droop.

To be honest, the ride quality should improve a bit (or at least not get any worse) when he turns up the damping to match his spring rate. At full soft, he may be over sprung.
