Also if your having diff issue that could be a cause of loosing time. I would also go over the whole car, and check out everything before trying to band-aid it with sway bars which could lead to another issue.

My two cent is, I really like the Tein coils. Flex and Mono Flex, and the EDFC is awesome to play with. Though some racing syndicates won't allow you to run it on course, and I hear good things about their new EDFC active. You can also get custom valving and have them rebuilt here in the states when the time comes.

NISSAN 370Z

Agreed! Check everything first man. EDFC does seem pretty cool.

If you really want to be serious about your coilover selection check out the shock dynos for the dampers. If you don't know how to read them I will read them for you if you post them up so you can get a sense of their behavior. Not sure if anyone has plotted any shocks for out of the box 370Z coilover suspensions, but they're nice to look at and can give you some key insight into how they will feel.

KW V3's are a good product, sort of like a super enthusiast product. Not sure they end up being any better than a set of Konis and some swift springs. Personally if I had to choose I would go with good shocks and springs over the V3's. Longer wear and less up front.

Sounds like you are fairly serious at going to the track, if that's the case you really want to explore your options on a suspension purchase and do your homework. Going straight to a coilover 2 way adjustable damper is going to be an enormous change-and it's a substantial purchase. I am a bit in the same boat myself, after 2 months of reading everything I can- I still can't decide.

What part of cali are you in? There are a few guys here that can tell you much much more about it than I can, but it is no minor thing to go from OEM suspension to 2 way adjustable coils. That being said, the KW's are a well tuned "one size fits all" product that I am sure you would be happy with. Do some research first though.
