However, I am VERY impressed and satisfied with the speed of the Z, and I only have K&N drop in's and a Amuse front pipe and R1. I am sure I will be in bliss when I get my Motordyne M370 on, and tuned.

The Z is not the fastest car for the money on the block, but is a PERFECT blend between the handling prowess of a 'tuned' RX8 and the new 5.0 Stang. In fact, a tuned Z reminds me more of a 'lesser' Vette.
Without highjacking this thread, have you already discussed benefit of coilovers? I tried to search Endgame posts. I am no expert with computers, and "invalid" repeatedly came back. You and Jeremy Clarkson from Top Gear, rave about RX8 handling, so it must be true. Have you already, or can you please, elaborate on coilovers benefit and difference between 370 and RX8.
