Amongst the usual chassis bits is something called a door stabilizer.

Quote:

According to Kazuyuki Shimizu: The door of the car I'll have a gap between the door and body. The moment you operate the steering, but very few in that there is this gap, will be delayed reaction of the car body is twisted. Is set to "zero" the gap by putting a spacer-shaped "wedge" to this gap there. You can finish as "clean" the vehicle can react from the moment you operate the steering in doing so, get a quick response.

So, they found that the door mechanism has so much play in it that it affects the handling/response of the car.

Whoa.

Now that's what I call dedication.
