. Since I wasn't sure what they promised to do, I did a Q&D search on EBay and Amazon to find out. In a nutshell, no.
. If well designed and constructed, they shouldn't do any harm, but they won't do much good, either. They certainly will not live up to some of the wilder claims.
. They _might_ provide some benefit in a car with a marginal electrical system, but putting in the proper parts (ie, big enough alternator) and cleaning the connections will probably do more to help the situation.
. If one will do your system some good, you have other problems that need to be addressed that will probably obviate the need for a stabilizer.

. Not in a stock 370Z and wouldn't be worthwhile in any vehicle I can think of. If you have "upgraded" the stereo or other electrical parts, there are better solutions to voltage droop than a stabilizer.

. Chill out and kick out the jams!
. Do keep an eye on water and oil temperatures.
