good job!
can't wait to see the car in person

[Sinister95Z]

It will happen for sure. After everything is finished, I will be making a trip up there to meet everyone from the club.

Looks great, my power slots just came in and I just ordered the Kore3 5 line kit from Tobin. I see some coin in the front of your car, good A arms, good K, good shocks, your doing every thing right and clean!

[Sinister95Z]

That is the exact kit I got from Kore3. I got the front and rear 5 line C5 conversion kit. You will be happy with them. Very high quality stuff and everything is included for a complete install.

[Camaro_94]

Nice!! :claps:

[Blubird]

are those edelbrock coil overs you got on there ?

[Sinister95Z]

No, I have the double adjustable QA1 shocks. I bought some of the BMR spring cups so that I could run stock springs. My lowering springs were killing me and the ride quality.

[Whitey]

Looks great. Just one question, is that powder on the caliper pistons?

No shots with the wheels on? That's like taking a picture of cake without the icing.

[SoulReaver]

I did this same upgrade over the summer. It is so worth every drop of money. I got everything for 80 bucks off a wrecked car though.

[YZF]

Shane is jealous. The entire suspension on that car looks badass. Props to you.

[K-Dawg]

Looks good. I've got a C5 conversion kit in my near future. I don't have the LS1 spindles though, been thinking about getting some of them.

[LT1B4C]

Looks good, I plan on doing this, this coming spring.

Just when I've decided the colors for my brakes... damn... maybe I will go all red.

Keep it subliminal IMO. I'd only go red if the car was red.

Werd. I like 'em car colored or black. But red does look good.

Wouldn't recommend white? HA

Y not? White cars stay cleaner looking than darker colored cars. Same should go for white calipers too I would think. maybe not. I have white calipers going on my car pretty soon so I will be testing my theory.

[941le]

i must say i am jealous on how great ur set up looks!

[SSSC]

Looks very clean and sharp

[Sinister95Z]

Thanks guys! The brake/suspension area is definetly one area of my car that I am very happy with. Not much more I can do...which is a good thing.

Let me know how that goes and get some pics up. It might be too flashy for me though.

[Toronto_LT1]

looks great! me likey.

[NebWS6]

So are you still running lt1 rears? If so then what kind of lines did you use front and rear?
