I think factory sways aren't that bad tbh. It'd be nice if the rear was stiffer though.
Pads are something you always change for the track. Nobody runs track pads on the street. I don't really care what pads a car comes with, I'm gonna take 10 minutes and switch them at the track.
Weight is reasonable for what the car is. Dropping 200 lbs and you lose stiffness or comfort--neither is really an option. Of course, in an ideal world, it would be great.

Overall for what I use the car for which right now is simply having an awesome looking sports car that is quick and I like the fact that it's a V6 that redlines at 7500 rpm. It's comfortable and capable. The OE tires are pretty sticky and it's made turns I thought it would have more trouble with. I have been very surprised by just adding the ART pipes... it was like when I added a tune to my Evo X. It just woke the car up soooo much. I have to say with all of talk of classes and such, the 370 looks better, is more comfortable and is better quality that my X could ever have hoped to be. The cheapness Mitsu puts into the Evo over time really starts to get to you... at least it did me. I had almost 400 whp out of it too... still like the Z better.
