Weight balance only tells part of the story but it does make a noticeable difference. |

Edit: that's without ruining the handling. You can of course do ridiculous things with coils. |

Cool! So to relieve the headache I'll keep the little battery up front and just plan on the coils to get a little closer.

There is a lot you can do to get weight better equalized but it's work. I'll list from easy to more difficult .
Lightweight wheels Lightweight battery. I wouldn't bother relocating it. Lightweight flywheel and clutch Aluminum hat brake rotors Long tube headers More work 350z head swap - 40 lbs! Sequential tranny -40 lbs Replace stock braking system and pedals for Tilton -25 lbs Dyno all stock wiring harnesses sensors etc 25 lbs I think my car was getting close to 50/50 but then we started tearing more weight out of the car.
