My updates...

Getting the car ready for an auto-x event this weekend. It will be the first time that I run the car with the new additions to the rear suspension. I also have a Hotchkis strut tower, don't think I will get that on before Saturday.

I purchased the GTO break reservoir and the kit to install today from two CAMARO5 members and will be adding that along with the line lock system I purchased a while back. I still need to install the catch can that has been sitting in the garage for a couple months, too many mods and not enough time.

I also added LED side marker lights at the fest and purchased SLP shark gill stickers and still trying to decide if I want to go with them or leave the car as it is.

Auto-x event after the BMR rear differential and subframe bushing install. This video will show you what the course looked like so you can see what the suspension was going through.

Started some modifications this evening. I installed a fuel pressure gauge and started the Hotchkis front strut tower brace install. Need to have this stuff done by Friday so I can drive her to our Camaro club meeting.

Pictures will be posted after I'm done. I also hope to have time to finally install the catch can I purchased several months ago.

Great day today, I finished installing the front brace, repaired the front plasma DRLs, installed my Rx catch can and then proceeded to start checking over the latest issue of the GoodGuys magazine that arrived today only to find a picture of my car in one of the pictures. One more mod (line lock) left in the garage to install before I have to start ordering again. Oh yes, I also installed the 20x9" SS wheels with fresh rubber up front that I purchased a fellow Camaro5 member a couple months ago.

Purchased PFADT coil overs and stales steel brake lines for the Camaro today, hope to have them installed by the next auto-x in a couple of weeks. I will finally be able to get another much needed alignment. Next mods will be new rotors and pads.

Your suspension is awsome!
I have re-done all my suspension with BMR sphericals arround Pedders XA coilovers. All I need is the bushing package, roll cage and the strut brace which I see clears your TVS easily. Im waiting to order my strut brace until I decide on whipple or TVS to make sure I dont have a clearence issue...
