Message I would adjust my tire pressures to dial out nuances in oversteer/understeer balance.

On an autox, I would definately set the front shocks to touring, and keep the front sway bar soft.

Once you get the hang of the Z again, I really think it is a very rewarding car to drive at the limit. It is one of the most fun cars I have ever tossed around.

I feel most people over drive the front stock wheels/tires, because of expectation and wrong perceptions about what it takes to go fast. You can go fast if you go slow enough in, you know that. But the car really does need more negative front camber with a stock suspension if you are a fast driver. Otherwise, raise your front tire pressures a bit relative to your rear and just get used to the fantastic world of throttle steering. It is so much more fun than driving those slow e36s! :)

Cheers,
