There is an outfit in Houston that makes an excellent STS kit. They're called NST (NonStop Tuning), they also make pulley kits and they're popular around here. It's worth throwing them in the pot for consideration.

My current tune timeline is probably sometime next year. But, as you may have noticed, sometimes I get a little impatient and do things sooner than originally planned.

Hey, 6MT Owners... what research have you done on STS between Stillen, B&M and TWM? I seem to be leaning towards TWM lately. Whichever one I choose, it's definitely happening Summer 2014 sometime.

I was going to mention the DIY for the Whiteline bushings but looks like you've found it already.

As for STS...I did look at B&M, but haven't really heard good things about them from the Z forums. I think TWM or Stillen would be your best bet. Reach out to 1CleanG, he might have better information for you since it doesn't seem to be as common a mod for G owners as they are for Z owners.

And it turns out mine need to be replaced... Dammit. We'll see what the dealer says and then go from there.

On another note, just installed the FI exhaust. Hot damn am I happy!

What, your rear diff frame bushings? Srsly? How's that happen on a 2010?

I bet you are. So are you going to be one of those AT cars that slip into neutral at the stop light so you can rev your engine? Come on-n-n-n, be honest.

Here's an evil admission. I love revving my car at the light, because 6MT, but what I really enjoy is letting it gently roll backwards and watching for the look of panic on the driver next to me.
