I'm the said 350z boardkat is referring to. I would love to drive someone's 370 but I guess it will have to wait until someone local buys one.

In a 350Z, the stock vlsd is junk for auto-x, street tires or r-comps. And the lack of camber is junk to. Fix one or both, and no doubt in my mind would I have easily trophied (i blew my trophy because the damn hoosiers would overheat on the nastly west course and I couldn't keep the car tidy, and coned each run).

I can't imagine the 370 is going to much better in terms of front camber and quality vlsd (if you can even call a vlsd a quality diff)
The diff seems better to what was in the 350Z and the G35 if you ask me. It is much more eager to lock up rather than spin the inside wheel like the previous revision did. Not saying it is top notch, and I have no idea what it will be like on r-comps as I haven't got there yet.

The car is downright brilliant with the camber issues fixed, it's just sad that doing so takes it out of stock class. The stock alignment was right around -1.0 up front with no adjustment available.

I'll be getting some V710's for our long courses, not sure yet if I will get A6's as that will depend on whether I want to go back to SCCA.
