Also changing out the compression rod bushings and going with SPL tie rods will sharpen up the steering.
Here is my goal for the Z
KW V3's
SPC rear camber/toe arms
245/265 18 NT05s on 18" RPF1's and maybe 265/285 NT01's for track time
Full exhaust (Decent headers, resonated test pipes, Apexi WS2)
Intake
Plenum spacer
Tune
Nismo Flywheel W/ new OEM clutch
3.7 or 3.9 ring & pinion
SPL tie rods
SPL compression rod bushings
Decent brake pads/fluid
Thats good for low 13's in the 1/4 and it would walk away from my S14 on the track while not being overly harsh driving around every day. Also that is an extremely short list of things to do compared to what I ended up doing to my S14 to get it where I wanted.
