Was asking some questions on f-body.com and someone from there gave me this site.
So far, I love what I see, nice to see not everyone is into straightline performance 24/7 Now as for very very basic stuff, I am very very new to the real suspension tweeks. Pretty much I have always been under the impression things like st braces and SFC's were pretty much night and day differences on these cars. However, I am looking to get into crossing the SS and have looked at things like hal Q1 shocks and springs and what not. I already have sub frames for the car other than the st brace the suspension is typical SS set-up number one, what are the reccomendations on chcnging springs and torque arms and shocks and anything I am leaving out? Looking for personal opinions that I may take into consideration. number 2, I am in jersey, where could I find info on taking the car to an event after she is set up to my happiness? Any and all info and opinions are welcome thanks, Bruce |

Welcome! Not sure how you plan to use your car (autox/track events/time trials?). Set-up is determined by primary use. I'm also from NJ and primarily use my '02 Z-28 for Open Track events. If you are looking to get into autox, the site: www.autox4u.com is the place to start for people in NJ. HPDE track events are available through: trackmasters, NASA, PDA, Car Guys, and any of the marque specific clubs. Just choose an organization that runs a track you'd like to learn. Seat time is the most useful thing you can do to improve your skills. Despite what some people think, the 4th gen. Camaro is a pretty respectable track car right out of the box. It is more than equal to the skills of most novice and intermediate level drivers. Did I mention seat time? Save the mod money and drive, drive ,drive.
