Z3 HDD and Stiff Suspension Cars

Greetings,

 

Does anyone have experience with the Z1, Z2, or Z3 operation in a car with a stiff suspension?

 

My car is designed for the track, but I use it as a street car, so the suspension is a bit stiffer than a normal sports car. I am wondering if vibration is going to be an issue for the HDD.

 

Thanks in advance!

I have a 2009 Toyota Tacoma X-Runner. The suspension is very stiff and it hasnt been a problem with my Z1. I notice sometimes in the hardware menu it will say "excessive vibration", but it hasnt been a problem.

I have a 3000GT VR4 with Tein coilovers. I also lowered the car 1 3/4 inches all around (for autocrossing). I do drive the car daily as you so the car occasionally hits the bump-stops, as well. All in all, bone jarring ride as it is designed for the track. Not a problem with the Z1. Z3's have the same basic design ........... just updates to firmware and software. Should not be a problem for you.

I have a lowered Subaru STi....no problems so far.

 

my only complaints are that the z3 completely licks ballz for transfering songs and pictures and it doesnt even have a cool equalizer screen that jams to the beat......ghey!
