my name is Robbie, from edmonton canada we only have one road course close by but a 1.2 mile autocross track that i fell in love with
anyways i bought my buddies old 1995 camaro z28, just got the car completly rewired and running this last month
im mostly looking at autox and then if im able to trailer it to road courses south of the border
its a lt1 6speed car with deleted cats and flowmaster 60 with 3inch single pipe and a centerforce clutch,
has h&r springs, hotchkis sway bars front and rear, hotchkis panhard, hotchkis front and rear arms,
i have a set of 18inch oz superleggera wheels on it and plan to put a set of c6 z51 wheels on it for weight over the oz's
over winter i wanna upgrade to c6 z51 brakes on all 4 corners,

im kinda a minitruck 80hp kinda guy and figured this would be the best place to get whatever kinda advice i can
Thank You

If you aren't going to use the ABS, then you'll need a proportioning valve. You can save a few pounds by removing the ABS unit and replumbing some of the brake lines. Stick with stock rear brakes and sensible pads.
