Freak accident, I wouldn't worry about it. Unless you're doing some serious weight reduction I would keep the airbags

I'm sure a shop could alter a line lock kit to do that for you
I want to disable ABS
Dyno tune will do that

I honestly don't know what you mean by this and the link isn't really helpful. Do you just want to lower the steering wheel, because the car already does that.

dyno tuner can do that

Buy slotted rotors and Hawk HP pads.

again, dyno tuner will do that

tuner can do whatever the hell he wants to your car

thanks for your help

Comments are in red. Also :facepalm:

wow i didnt realize how much a good tuner can do, and for the steering i mean the spindle part down on front end, to increase the lock angle from the wussy 31 degrees, i just was hoping someone came up with something else cheaper than 6,600 dollars, but i guess the demand is just too low.

I'll hit most of these up

I want to remove the side airbags, because i don't want this to happen
http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showth...hlight=airbags

Pull em on out, it's not hard. Your front airbags will no longer work, however, and your airbag light will stay on. You can remove the light from the cluster circuit board with a pin soldering iron. There are two long bags in the upper side panels, and two small bags in the seat sides

I want to disable the rear brakes while i am holding a button on shifter, i slight change from standard linelock.
Thats the exact same as a standard line lock, you'd just be applying it at zero brake instead of full brake. Remember, it's just a solonoid that shuts a valve in the brake line. If there's full pressure in the rear, it will keep full pressure. If there's none, there will keep none

I want to disable ABS
Unplug the abs sensors in the wheel hubs, or remove abs fuse. Simple. Youll have to remove the cluster light from circuit board to get rid of it, cant be programmed out. (bcm)

Cant help you here

If ABS is disabled, these are also disabled, as they are part of the abs system

I dont want any warnings to appear in dash.
Remove the leds, as of now, they arent programmable out of the bcm.

i will be getting a custom dyno tune, and i am not sure what all the tuner can turn off. None of it, it's all BCM controlled and not pcm

You can remove the airbags pretty easily. I removed ALL of them from my car when we added the 10 point roll cage. Side curtain, seats (swapped in Race seats), steering wheel, and side passenger airbag. Removing all of them saves 33 lbs of weight.

Pull the fuse under the hood to disable the air bag circuit. that gets rid of the annoying beeping every minute. We had to keep the brain for them in the CAN bus chain. It is located at the rear of the console.

I want to disable ABS

Never messed with the brakes or ABS on my car.. I need to stop quickly.

Perminantly disabling the TC and Stabilitrak isn't easy.. It was done on my car "by accident". We removed Onstar, GPS, all Steering wheel controls when the steering wheel got replaced, airbags when the interior was gutted for the cage. TC and Stabiliteac never got "fixed" after we took it apart and re-assembled. I have no issue with my brakes whatsoever. The TC button in my car does nothing.

I dont want any warnings to appear in dash.

thanks for your help

I would assume you are stripping the car to remove un-needed weight?

Parag 09-15-2011 11:49 AM

Yup i hate weight. I kinda wish i would have bought a cheaper car rather than pay for all this and then strip it all out
Thanks all of you that is a big help
This should be a different car when im done

toehead93 09-20-2011 06:46 PM

Or you could have done it backwards by getting a stripped Camaro and adding the stuff you want starting with just $7,000.

You may want to look into dedicated race pads instead of the Hawk HP+ pads. I would call Hawk and a couple other pad companies and see what they offer for drifting. Different pads have different bite depending on tepmerature.

Everyone hit on what I was going to say already. Just like to see how everything works out when your done
