My G35 had a Tein coilover suspension with an EDFC unit. At its stiffest setting, my 370 still feels more responsive, with less over/understeer. Weight might be playing a factor, but 0 chance a 350 handles better. Nissan designed this car with track use in mind, thats why the wheel base was shortened, weight dropped, stickier tires applied, SRM used, and suspension IMPROVED, yes, improved, not downgraded. With the Z34, Nissan wanted to move forward. Worse handling than previous generations would be taking a step back dont you think? It might not "feel" like it handles better, but from a scientific standpoint, and proven faster lap times, it does. And lets not get into the "well the 370 has 332hp", on an auto x track, neither car will reach speeds where 30bhp makes a difference, and with 2 ft/lbs more, not a factor. Performance wise, the 370 is an all around better car. PERIOD.
