It's not a life changing, be all modification but you will notice a difference of less wiggle, wobble and will just provide a more connected feel. I also see less wheel hop when spinning my tires or tire while attempting to launch my car (VDC/ABS brakes spinning both wheels). I did manage the other day to pull out a 4.69 sec 0-60. Still spinning and peddling at only 60-65% throttle. I can't wait to see what my car's going to be able to do with two proper drag radial tires in the rear.
Just installed this a few days ago. I don't own a Draggy GPS device so I can't see any numbers. With this Coronavirus going around I've been keeping to myself and keeping a low profile. Drag strips are not open as well. I can tell a difference and the subframe collars are going to make a big benefit for sure.
Sad that it doesn't come with a manual transmission option though. Anyways, you definitely described my issue when I make hard turns. It feels like it's a slight delay but catches on. I don't feel like I'm going to loose control but there's slop there. So hopefully I'll end up ordering my Z1 collars soon.
For sure, some want a manual trans. I'm good with the auto and the manual shift via the center console. I can get the manual shift like control but no clutch. In sport mode, tuned with added power the trans add more firm and quicker shifts. I just have sport mode but other premium models sport plus. I will tell you like you can figure out the bushing inserts make the subframe portion like 85% more connected. I'm not sure I'd want 100 or welded subframe's connection because not a race car but still a nice daily driver with some comfort needed. While every thing else can get so expensive to modify these are nice because no so expensive. Just the install which could be daunting for some and I understand that. I just all the sudden became braver and in the DIY mood.
The only thing that I'm worried about is removing my OEM exhaust cause I know it's annoying, might run into bolts/nuts that won't come off, and it's heavy as hell.
@@bman409 yes I wasn't excited about removing the rear portion of the exhaust either. I did have trouble at first removing two of the main exhaust bolts but weeks later I got motivated to buy a Magnaflow CBE system. I had to this time remove the stock CBE. I made a video. I used a popular lubricant to help release stubborn bolts/nuts. I worked and I was able to remove the stuck exhaust nuts. None of this work to takeoff/put back on is super fun but it can become enjoyable and challenge your skills which for some can be therapeutic.
I just got PB Blaster and it never really failed me. I know this whole quaratine I've been working on my 350z. I done changed the front and rear rotors and pads, front end links with new ES (energy suspension) bushings, and rear end links with ES on front and rear sway bars. I also did the rear Bell Raceworks differential race brace as well.
I may not be a good/talented video speaker/maker but I try. I will get better with more time and practice. I got to work on just being direct and getting to point of video and not reflect as much on side thoughts.
@@GettingthruLife To be honest your side thoughts are interesting to hear as well. I'm a fan of KayDro's videos also, love all the great content creators in the VR30 and Q community. Love the videos man
Thank you! Just ordered mine from your video

Getting thru Life Get the Dragy man, it's worth it to me. That way you can track every improvement with every mod.
@@jstephens1193 I agree with you.
