Talking What if I told you that all Pfadt parts were not gone for good?



Following the announcement that Pfadt Race Engineering was closing their doors, we were approached by them and asked if we would be interested in taking over some of their products. They felt that there was no reason that their loss couldn't be someone's gain and that Apex Motorsports was the right company to carry them on with the same level of passion and customer support that they had. So after several weeks of ironing out details, Apex Motorsports is excited to announce the resurrection of the first former Pfadt product under the Apex Motorsports brand!

Lowering spring pricing and ordering information can be found here.




  • 1.25" Drop in both the front and rear
  • Sporty handling without being harsh
  • Springs designed to work great for the V6, SS, and ZL1. Perfect for those looking to upgrade in the future!
  • Lower Center of Gravity and slightly higher spring rates for improved handling for your Camaro
  • Can be used on convertible Camaros, as well as those equipped with GFX packages
  • Engineered to optimize the factory shock absorber damping
  • Engineering design and race testing ensures the ultimate in quality and longevity
  • Made in the USA


Before




After

Chase, congratulations....I hope it all works out for you, your company, and employees...and customers....

Get the 5mm and 10mm wheel spacers, lugs and lug nuts....no-one else I could find makes them in that Pfadt style....all others are 15 and 20mm and have the dual sets of studs and lug nuts...

Again, good luck...

No, Pfadt is gone. They turned over the product designs to us and we are manufacturing them now.

We will just be sticking to the suspension parts. Hate to say but the headers are probably gone for good.

If the springs are any indication they merely bought the rights to things that were outsourced and labeled as Pfadt. So anything constructed/welded in-house will be a no-go.
