I really dont recommend just using spacers on these cars. I thought of doing that until I saw how short and stubby they tie rod threads were. You will be left with very little threads so it wasnt worth it to me. You might want to hit up George Marstanovic and see if he can make some of these for the 370z. Im sure he will if there is enough interest. Steering Angle Rack Spacers - Maverick Motorsports

I made 6mm units and it leaves enough thread for drifting IMO. unless you drift with potholes. The issue is not so much the thread as it is the wheels wanting to turn more than the lower control arm lets you. I've shaved some of the lower control arms for more angle...it will be enough until an angle kit is made for the 370z. (I have a set of narrower wheels for the front to test)
Been developing this car with the help of 2 FD drivers.
