    Hewy guys just after some advice i was wondering who here runs a rear sway bar and if so has it made any improvements on the way the car turns it or does it cause more over steer. Ive heard so many conflicting stories from people just would like some more input before i look at going down this track cheers Richard
  4. I forget the type of shocks im running i think there pedders there meant to be equivalent to koni reds on the medium/hard setting , but i use the car everyday and have taken to the track and next year when i not a student ill be looking to do a few hill climbs and the like. I drive up in mountains fairly regulary and the new springs make the zed sit on the road really well
  5. Just thought id add what ive done with the springs . I orginaally got a set of king 200lb king springs for my 240z and like you guys i was really disappointed , i got Morrabin Spring works to make me a custom set to 280lbs for the back and i could be happier , the springs are heaps stiffer but back breaking. I got these custom spring done for $160 a pair and they been on the car for 6 months now and havent got softer like the king springs did cheers Richard

    Good news i fixed it i hada slight blockage in the back carby and after stopping the car at the shops i went to drive off and she was only running on 4 cylinders. Turns out there was some $^!# in the flat bowl. After cleaning it out shes back to her best. Thanks for the help guys cheers Richard
