I have had the car to the dealer lying through my teeth telling him this is happening on the street and the system checks out perfectly. I drive a Nismo so you can’t get any stiffer suspension than that. The problem is that the pickup is at the top of the tank and not at the bottom so any splashing on tight right hand turns is going to cause it. I have seen some baffle configurations for RX7’s and the 350’s but not the 370’s. I have been chasing this for over a year and no luck. I am trying to find a solution without spending $1k plus for a pressurized secondary tank. Running the tank full every session worked for awhile but now I am going too fast for even that to work. Oh well. I will just keep looking.
