Red face Hotchkis Sway

Yea just get a z-tube like munky said, but I would use the OEM air filter, thats just me though.

Do a very mild drop, i.e. 350z springs, like munky said. cause since you're on a budget, a drop like mine requires adjustable rear camber arms and optional adjustable front upper arms. there arms are of course to correct camber/toe and avoid premature tire wear.

hope this helps.

nice find jon, swaybars are a cost effective handling upgrade to most cars. now the question is, how does this affect ride quality?

I have Stillen Sways on my car and it didn't change the ride quality in my sedan. I am using Med/front & Rear.

I have 350z/front and coupe/rear springs on my sedan and I had to get front camber kit on my sedan. However, I put just rear camber on the rears later on.

Look at my signature below for ideas...

Use a Amsoil Eaa Drop-In Filter, Ztube, and get a OEM 06 Rev-Up box is the best setup for intake mods.

Also get a MD 5/16 ISO thermal spacer. You will feel the difference with the spacer and get 10HP more to the ground.

Like Jim said, it don't affect ride quality. Things like springs/Shocks, coilovers, aspec ratio of your tires affect ride quality.

+1

for the new guys out there, do a proper intro, pic of car, where you live and stuff like that. the crew in this thread are a good bunch, but we prefer that you search through this thread before posting. or pm any of us that frequent this thread asking if you want to attend a meet or hangout. its always nice to put a g35driver handle to a an actual pic of your ride :biggthumbup:
