Sports package is a great deal if you don't plan on modifying the elements that are added with the package.

Non-sport gives you $3k to drop on more serious modifications (and makes it easier to drop in some of the Torsen diffs available).

The Rays are a great reasonably lightweight option, but there are better choices (especially as going wider up front is critical on the Z), and they're the most important part of the package.

The VLSD won't stand up to any of the use you'd actually want an LSD for (except maybe drag racing). SRM may matter to some, I guess, but NVA in my mind. Brakes are still a question mark in my mind (is getting air on them enough?)...I'd probably go elsewhere either way.

But, great value if you're keeping those parts on the car.
