Thanks for the input, you definitely have quite the heavy car. I think I would only need about 20lbs in the rear to stay at the same factory F/R distribution which I believe the difference is between diffs.

When and if you get an upgraded diff installed you will see what I am talking about. It is the best money you can spend on a 370z to improve track times. As far as my frustrations, Sounds like you need a date with AOC. LMAO!!!!
I have considered many options but after researching all my options I decided the wavetrac was what I was looking for as I was looking for something streetable and quiet.
