Zeta (Camaro/Commodore/G8) suspension details
 
Maybe this forum should be called "wheels, tires and suspension" ? :)

Found this in my trips around the internet. This is probably a G8 underbody, but the Camaro should be very similar if not identical.

No way....true duals?????!?!? :D :D

Sweet.

I dunno what type of car those pix came from, but agree. True duals would be a blessing! That and the IRS is going to make this one hell of a ride.

I could swear I saw those under what was claimed to be a Camaro. I could be wrong but now I feel bad for not posting these images already because I thought they were already here.

wow, duals would be wicked. We can hope! :paddle:

Nice, looks like there might be room for dual electric cutouts right after those initial cats!

The description did seem a little ambiguous. But when you consider that there's maybe a dozen actual Camaros in existence, and it was only in the last couple weeks that the first cars hit US soil, and those cars are tightly controlled by GM....how could this guy even get a peek under the skirt of one, much less take it apart and have time to do all his research?

I'm not so sure about true dual. I admit, Based on the pics there is no real need to cross the two since there is a cat a muffler on each side. But they pinch together in this photo. Obviously there's a reason for it. Maybe just more room for the exhaust that way? But it looks real promissing for true dauls.

I'd love some true duals with cutouts. I'm not sure they would ever be closed.

I could've swore I saw those pictures right around the time the pics' showed up where they landed in the US, or a month-or-two before that. Oh well; we'll find out in a while.

They also show the same pics in a G8 thread.
