yah, been saying this all along... the front bar needs help, the rear is fine.
might want to get beefier endlinks though if your setting is any more than 35-40% stiffer than stock.

installed a fatboy shift knob today. i like it. shifts are a bit shorter since it sits lower and lighter since it is twice as heavy as the stock one. the only issue is that the knob is advertised as 1.4 lb but is only 1.03 lb when i weighed it.

Got my dr. Colorchip kit yesterday and proceeded to annihilate about 90% of the paint chips all over my Z, 100% satisfied with the results

I found my first chip on the front bumper. Dr. Colorchip will be making a visit to my house.
