The stock shocks actually seem to work pretty well in conjunction with the uprated sway bars, although probably not quite as well in stock class as you are stuck with the stock rear sway bar.
That's your problem right there with the low speed understeer. And no way in hell are you maxed out on 275s on stock wheels, we run 295 hoosiers on the stock 18x8 350z wheels with no problems, and by far the quickest setup with the car being super neutral. Unless you are talking street tires that are dual purpose. Then you're on your own and the car will kinda suck at autoxing. Until you got to a square setup, you'll going to have tons of understeer auto-xing a Z. And with that much rubber up front, even with stock alignements, they last quiet a while.
