Too many run these ‘canyon’ roads like we have them here in So CA Angeles Crest Hwy, Glendora Mtn Road, etc and run into accidents, reckless drivers, road conditions, way too many risks. Guys should at least once do an organized track day and find your limits, very safe, less risks if you...

Good analysis there. Certainly those bushing upgrades ups the stiffness at initial transitions, overpowers more the rear OEMs (terrible to start with). Nice track with long straights sure helps with brake cooling but increases engine, diff temps at higher speeds. Rear RE71RS or RZ will I'm sure...

Not sure if this was posted before, re: GM engines failing, related issue. See at 22:00 on, band-aid recommendation to increase low rpm oil pressure. Problem is, I'm still under warranty and judiciously changing oil at 5K intervals, will bypassing the solenoid cause or indirectly cause warranty...

Having both RZ34 and 240Z, still sticking to my choice, the OG S30, USDM or JDM, especially the Series 1...:clap: My last two: Work in progress

It depends on the application and spring rates. I've used both Swifts and Eibach Pro-kit on different cars. In a way just because they're not progressive, doesn't mean they have less control and bouncy (that's the shock damping part). The Swift Spec-Rs I have now never bottom out even at 1.3g...

Swift Springs, been around, JDM designed meaning not too stiff, about 1" drop.

For street only, I agree 100%.

Try the 200tw RE71-RZ, they stick really well, progressive at the limit, and still long lasting, just not a wet weather tread. I was impressed when tracked, very predictable on corners and braking. Good choice on the pads, also my setup, no fade, just mild squeal on city driving, they are mostly...

The Momo fits very nice in hand, great for tracking, but this Z won't track but occasional autocross. The best wheel I think is still the smaller diameter Nissan Competition wheel, expensive but still the OEM design but with better grip and smaller.

Brought home a companion for the RZ34, 56 yrs younger. Early Series 1 running project 240Z (10/70 build). Still runs strong, fun times ahead, suspension, brakes, tires, bushings first, patina later. Some autox goals :like: My 5th 240Z in over 20 years. Can't give them up!

The Nismo has plenty of reserve cooling for all street/canyon drives, from talking with club members. No need to upgrade in this dept.

Might as well include my 400+ mi to ZCON. No telling when I'll do another long drive.

Great top notch parts, GLWS, I've already upgraded. But....why not get another Performance with your insurance settlement? Or, moving on to another platform?

At least you have not lost $$. What if you’ve paid the seller, does BaT help to recover that? Probably lengthy arbitration and/or lawsuits.

Doesn’t BaT enforce some penalties for sellers like those? I know one person that won and got the vehicle not as advertised. Shoddy work.

Has anybody been unhappy with BaT buys? Any personal experiences? How about good results? Payments, shipping, etc? Seem to see more Nissans and Datsuns lately.

Afternoon on the 210 in Monrovia..

Awesome write-up, leaving most connections intact! My next to tackle, CZP has good products, and the Z needs it in hot So CA once more tracking happens next year. What was the appx time for the install and did you have to bleed any air even after pre-filling the HX?

I was running the OEM 370Z Nismo V2 wheels, all rear 19x10.5" square set. They fit great without any spacers and no rubbing even with 285/30 tires, slightly lowered which gave a little more negative camber. I went with this setup so I can rotate the tires giving more life. These V2 wheels are...
