Hi, new to the handling scene and am pretty happy that I found you guys!!!

I'm been with the Drag racing crowd for the past couple years and finally realized that I actually need a car that I can drive everyday if I wanted and take highways exit ramps without slowing down to a snails pace since I'm scared to bend the 3.5" skinnies up front (no sway bar, so same case with street setup).

My power-band is probably not the best for road racing/autocross, but I hope to fix that in the near future with a cam swap but I just installed my suspension setup yesterday and am damn happy with the results! I can actually take turns fast!!!

As for my setup, it's a '94 Camaro Z28 with a LS1 (6.0ltr iron block) and T56 conversion. Here's the suspension setup:

- Koni adjustables front and back (4/4 kit from Strano)
- Strano front and rear sway bars
- Ground Control Coil over kit (550 in front, 175 in back)

This thing handles like it's on rails!!!! Feels a bit shaky going over bad surfaces, so subframe connectors are next! (I seriously can't belive I still don't have subframe connectors after all I've done!)

Sorry no pics of before after right now but I'll post some later when I get the car cleaned up and the ride height adjusted after the springs settle, but here's pics from the install :grin:
