Thanks Boss_302. I actually had the same thought, so today i called the dealer (parts dept.) and they tell me that the only difference in bars is between the touring model and sport package. My car has the sport package. Not sure where the confusion lies and So far i haven't found detailed info on the NISMO bars on-line. They also gave me a functioning phone number (though they were closed) for nissan motorsports. Apparently NISMO is "no longer part of nissan", but perhaps nissan motorsports is actually racing zcars. Haven't heard anything about NM in years, but back in the day they always had the best parts and most experience (for the most part) with my 240z. Be interesting to see when i call them back.

Agreed Gomer_110. I'm only interested in changing the front bar.

Here's a chart someone showed me when I was looking at sway bars. Hope it helps.

Yea, I understand about the rules. Use to run formula fords. Sometimes we just drop the rear bar, but than we had other things to adjust,
One thing you can do is play with the tire pressures front to back, a couple of pounds either way could make a difference, alignment is important. You can get a tire pyrometer and measure the temperature across the thread and see if you are making full contact and fine tune the alignment accordantly |
For AX 245 font is way too skinny for our weight. Minimum of 265 or 275 up front. 295 or 285 rear on stockers is going to be best bet.

Eibach Front Sway: 4.52 kg Eibach Rear Sway: 3.80 kg Stock Front Sway: 3.51 kg Stock Rear Sway: 1.97 kg Also you could theoretically do a more detailed calculation if you measured the "lever arm" length of the various endlink setting holes and added that into the calculation. Shorter lever arm means less mechanical advantage, making it effectively stiffer. Though I don't know how much value there is in trying doing these calculations when really the inner diameter is only a guess. |
Anyways, I like the feel of the eibachs, so far I have only tried it on soft setting on front and middle setting on rear.
I was a little concerned when reading the eibach install guide, it basically said don't use the stiffest settings front or rear in the rain. My Z is my daily driver so it sees rain on occasion, should I be concerned about going stiffer in front? I guess I don't really see how less roll is going to make rainy conditions more dangerous. |
