Hi "Merry Christmas to me https://static1.pt-content.com/images/pt/2007/12/beers-1.gif

I have a $5000.00 budget for suspension and Brakes.
Help me spend it. Suggestions appreciated. I need everything.
Here is my current Idea.
Gbar---1600.00
Touring classics F & R 1500.00
Global West Uppers and lowers 1000.00
springs 100
Unisteer Rack + late model pump 900.00.

Thoughts or ideas Apprecated. Vendors/Sponsors Please PM me if you have pkg ideas.
Thanks

BTW My primary use will be as a driver Mustang destroyer and maybe the occasional autocross or Time attack .. I have an intrest in Targa NewFoundland but that is ambitious for now..

Frank over at gpsuperstore can burn through that faster than betting on red.

Call Frank over at gpsuperstore an order an Air Ride Street Challenge system with the new Air Pod if it is availabel yet.

If I had it to do over again I would save the extra two grand and get a complete aftermarket sub from DSE or Art Morrison. I think you would be happier in the long run.

based on everything I have read and your intedned purpose this would be great choice. Its what I am going to do to my nova when the cash presents itself.

Only problem is we blow the $5000 budget with the Street Challenge kit. it gets the job done, just out of his budget.

Um - what is the chassis?

[Smock67]

He posted on camaros.net. I would assume he has a first gen. This is purely a guess though.

[XLexusTech]

Um - what is the chassis?

yes Gen1 camaro

starting to lean toward the following.
TVS 1100.00
Lee box 600.
Touring classics 1500.00
AFX spindles 700.00 (Tall ones???)
Global wwest arms 1000.00
100 for Tie rods
Thoughts appreciated.

I would ditch the Unisteer and either get a Lee box from ATS or a box from DSE. ATS spindles and upper arms from SC&C instead of Global West. ATS spindles will work with you Touring Classic brakes as well and save some coin there as you won't need there front bracket for C5 brakes.

[rocketrod]

Don't buy the TVS kit, but buy the individual pieces minus the rear sway bar. Also reuse your stock LCAs an install GW del-a-lum bushings. Take the $$ saved and buy some 17"/18" rims and the best tires you can afford to take advantage of all of the mods.

My suggestion-

Front:
SPC upper control arms -$299
Moog upper ball joints -$60
Global West Del-a-lum LCA bushings -$150
Hyperco springs -$200
Bilstein shocks -$165
AFX tall spindles -$695
Touring Classics C5 front brake kit -$775
ATS 670 steering box -$515

Total- $2859

Rear:
Hyperco composite mono leaf springs -$600
Global West del-a-lum bushings and shackle kit -$200
Bilstein shocks -$165
Touring Classics rear brake kit -$850

Total- $1815

GRAND TOTAL- $4674

Money left over for misc fasteners, fittings, etc. You will have a fantastic handling vehicle that will hold one hell of a candle to most aftermarket subs out there.

As long as you have a wheel that can fit the brake system, you can't go wrong here.
