The biggest factor that makes the steering come alive is the large scrub radius I don't know of a single other car that has one as latge from the factory, I'm sure they are there somewhere.

911 w/ 7ET23.3 front wheels has a s/r of 52.4

s/r of a 964 w/ 7s is 0

s/r of a 993 w/ 7s is -10
the bigger s/t in either direction the more feedback to the steering wheel

ABS equipped cars have to have s/r 0 to some neg. value
