Message	I don't know what "euro-spec" tension rod bushings but they have to be better than US-spec but not probably as good as ES bushings. Eibachs with stock shocks IMO is not that good. Contrary to some other peoples opinions this is not an ideal setup - too bouncy and not that well controlled on rough roads. Sway bars? Larger tire/rims. Brand/model of tire. --- These are where the real differences are. Reviews written at the time state that the porsche has a slight handling edge but that the Z has a significant ride advantage. They also write that the Z's stock tires are inadequate and if suspension was tightened a bit (and better tires), there would be no contest that the Z would handle better. (This is comparing the 944T I believe)
