So I've been floating around awhile but haven't posted much, mostly reading and enjoying. So I thought I'd post up what I've been working on for everyone. My pride and joy is a 2001 Trans am Ws6 (not anymore technically) haha. I've been slowly building and driving the car since I bought it in 2012. It was in rough shape and didn't seem like it was taken care of. I've upgraded and removed alot, and still have alot more to go. The short story of the upgrades are full suspension, cage, custom exhaust and any weight removal possible. Thanks for viewing!

I would like to chime in about the hubs you if wouldn't mind. I have ran 315 Hoosiers, Kumhos and Rivals for many years on my 94 1LE. I have religiously replaced hubs so many times I have lost count. I had an incident last year where the left front actually separated and I almost lost the entire wheel and almost suffered body damage at a local autocross event. There was no warning and the hub was new as of that event. It made me think long and hard about upgrading to the adapter or John's bullet proof hubs at Hoosier Performance. The price is the biggest detractor on the Hoosier hubs. I am not too familiar with the SKF adapters that you mentioned. Are those used in conjunction with a Corvette style hub? Are you able to reply with details about those parts (where to get them, or a link to a website that carries them)? Thanks for the help.

Info is here. There is an SKF "X-tracker" race hub for the C5. This kit adapts those to fit the 4th gen. It's a whole different class of hub than what we have available. The kit is beautiful, I have one in the garage for my car. Nice stuff. www.frrax.com/rrforum/index.php?showtopic=17383 |
