No, stock pics right after I got the car. Widened wheel pics coming in a few days.

Pfadt springs are being installed, look for pics and write up in a day or two. Super easy install so far. Spoke with Brandon at IPS Motorsports and ordered the BMR subframe connectors (SFC 015) and adjustable toe rods (TR 004). Brandon is super to deal with! He can be reached at: www.ipsmotorsports.net or 614-444-5884.

I've done a write up on my Pfadt spring install. You can read about it here. http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showthread.php?t=56127

Pfadt sways are on now too. Rear bar was a piece of cake, but the front bar was a pain due to the turbo plumbing in the way. I ended up cutting the stock front bar to get it out. Pfadt bar went right in, though. Go figure. Pics and driving impressions coming soon...

Jeeze Frank!!! Thumbs up the whole way!!!!

Shifty 6 · 12-22-2009, 09:51 AM

I gotta say Frank, this car is looking really good. I like it because it is very classic, and clean. I can't wait to see it on the ground.

FrankT · 12-22-2009, 09:55 AM

Thanks for the comments everybody. On the ground pics coming soon...

Shifty 6 · 12-31-2009, 10:30 AM

Bump....actually I am trying to pressure Frank into getting those pics up soon. We are anxiously waiting.

Shifty 6 · 01-02-2010, 09:22 AM

Had no idea. Hope everything is OK.....Now on to the Pics!

j/k Frank hope you are doing well. My mom says lots of fluids and rest.

Well, I've been back at work for a week or so now trying to catch up and haven't had a lot of time for wrenching on the car. I did manage to replace the 44mm TIAL wastegate that the morons in Florida used with a Synapse 50mm. It did require a bit of fabrication on the discharge side of the wastegate. We'll see if it controls the boost better.

Upcoming installs: I'm taking out the Pfadt springs and installing KW coilovers. The Pfadt springs ride great, but the drop was a little more than I liked with the bigger tires (275 front, and 305 rear). I think they would be great with stock tire sizes. I'll be selling these as soon as I get them off. If anyone is interested send me a PM. Next is the HID foglight/ DRL halo ring install. I think this is going to look great. I have a few Pedders bushings to install as well. I believe Pedders parts are made of Unobtainium, I can't believe how difficult this stuff is to get. Also, I'll be finishing up the ABL mod for the dash.
More pics and info to come...
