Installed the eibach front sway bar yesterday. Had some drive time on the soft and stiff setting and the stiff + oem rear sway feels great to me. Contrary to beliefs, the bigger front sway helped control the Zs understeer. I'm quite happy with it at the moment

Replacing my sway bars with Hotchkis was one of the first changes I made on each of my 370Zs. I am in complete agreement about the effect it has on under-steer. It made it go way. (the SPL endlinks helped also)

yah, been saying this all along... the front bar needs help, the rear is fine.
might want to get beefier endlinks though if your setting is any more than 35-40% stiffer than stock.

My wife and I drove about 60 miles to get a sandwich at our favorite surviving pizza place. On the return trip we took a long-cut on some little-traveled, curving, country roads through a national forest.

Quite the enjoyable afternoon!

Oil change day -- I love Sacramento Nissan.

I bring them oil and filter and crush washer, they change it and charge $17.00 labor, plus they do a multipoint.

Today, with a coupon, total cost was zero.

Oh -- Red Line 5/30 plus K&N

How much did you buy the oil/filter/washer for?

So I get my stuff wholesale. I think I paid $7.49/quart for the oil and around $8.00 for the filter. I buy the Red Line in Gallon bottles.

Nice - I had my local Nissan do an oil change and moved over to synthetic last week. Tech was a Z owner and enthusiast as well and we chatted for a bit about mods and stuff. He told me to bring whatever fluids I'd like for changes and they would just charge labor.
