Dave,

Make sure your knock sensor is working properly and that you are not having any light detonation before you put some dope tape on the sensor - it desensitizes it enough to (in extreme cases) not pick up detonation it should.

NJ inspection is not visual, so if you pass the tailpipe and plug-in test, no worries.

I want to say that you should reconsider the poly RCA choice - poly on the body side will bind under side to side movement and will make noise and "jerk" the car a bit when you are in turns. I suggested the Global West RCA to you previously due to their HD rubber/spherical joint bushings that work great, have no bind, and ride quite well - have them on both the GTA and Camaro.

In case you need them, I have a brand new pair of Global West RCA relocation brackets (weld-on for 3rd and 4th gens) as your car is lowered.

Sway bars - really a tuning device on the 3rd gens, your 34/23mm combo (stock IROC) will work fine. You can always put a smaller bar on the rear if you feel it is over steering too much (21mm is the next OEM size smaller).
