Simple knuckles are the next best bang for buck. I still say the Parts Shop Max kit is overkill until you make more power. The extra angle of the kit is cool, but at N/A power levels, you can't keep the wheel speed high enough to maintain the high slip angles around higher speed corners. So all that extra angle is basically just there in case you screw up.



If I got another ZN6 and added FI, I would definitely go with the PBM kit. If I stay N/A, simple knuckles are enough.







I ditched mine, but mostly to get rid of the snappy tendency these cars have on transition. Tie rods aren't quite enough to cause the endlinks to bind. Knuckles are...but only so much.



I ditched the front sway bar and endlinks and switched to 8k/9k springs, front and rear, respectively. Car felt much better, especially on transition.


Gotcha, what are you running for damping settings? I'm on BC BRs with 8k/8k, I have 32 clicks of adjustment, right now I'm trying with 8 clicks from hard in the front, 4clicks from hard in the rear and it seems ok
