So..... about the brake calipers...... :popcorn:

Ok. Im torn. Powder coated calipers. Rjt or Vic red???

no worries :thumbsup:

hmm... RJT. it's different & fits the dark blue theme better
do you have a local powdercoater? if not, the guy that did my wheels is awesome & has great prices.

I'm thinking about using mikethepowdercoater.

:laugh: I said red, unless the metal flake can be taken out of the rjt. :rolleyes:

Victory Red with a shadowed tintcoat...:D

Pink. They'll go nicely with your tutu.

Ok, ok. If you won't do pink, then I think VR would look sweet.

:laughabove:

OK!!! Finally got one of my outstanding projects off my list.

:D Installed the balde spoiler with some harassment and assistance from my buddy Scott.

Took us about two hours to get it done. taking our time.. and we had to adjust the driver's side corner piece once... or twice... The harness is pretty easy to install. the corners just take some patience but they go on pretty easy too.

I got mine from Becky@rodgerschevrolet. :thumbsup:

fit and finish are great. we did have to adjust the holes for the drivers side corner piece but that is just the nature of a piece like this... the template was pretty much dead on but not quite perfect which it can't be. But if you follow the directions you can't really mess it up... Once I get my hands on a stock Camaro I'll put a video together

We did this last minute and didn't shoot any film but I'll put one together soon.

:thumbsup:

PICS!!! :D

That's sexy... looks a lot like mine, but not quite as good, color is off.....RJT for the win...J/K

yeah... uhm yers is nice... for an RJT car... It works. ;)

But that GMPP Spoiler combined with the heritage grille... Is how God intended the Camaro to look.

:D I'm pretty stoked :D

I hear you, I've been considering the heritage grill, just haven't pulled the trigger yet.. Still debating it...

Your spoiler was a close second on my list. But I've wanted this spoiler from the get go.

:D

I really do think the car looks so much cleaner with the H Grille.

no BS

doooo iiiiiiit.... :D

you lost me here, I have the same spoiler you have, just in a color to match my car...

and I may do it...

OH ISH... dude, I thought you and emma had the same one... I must have you confused with TAG... woops, My bad brother....

:facepalm:

not a problem, I just thought I was losing my mind... and I think Tag and Emma do have the same one...Here's mine...Note, I got a new SS emblem to replace the one removed for the install.. split the rear lights as the centering point...

:D so nice. I love that spoiler. the next one that I'm chompin at the bit to get done is my MGW. you still happy with yours?

yup, and with the improvements MGW has made, it'll be even nicer...

I may have a sponsor for a transmission... If we can't get it right locally I'll be going for it...

I need to call them and see if mine has the new stuff in it. I got mine NIB, so I'm not sure what I need to upgrade.

Oh new tranny... I'm going to be the last manual car on this site aren't I.

:laugh:

Oh hell no, I'll be there right beside you... I'm talking a sponsor to provide a built TR 6060, with 4340 shafts etc... It aint free by any stretch, but the price is way right for me...

:drinking: Nice. I've been talking to Tim at T and T about his tranny rebuilds... Seems like some good insurance for my power level.

Ultimately my goal is to make the drive train bullet proof to about 700 to the wheels.

Then get a nice streetable 650ish to the tires and really learn how to drive.

:D

I've heard some nice things about the work they are doing... Tim was helpful with suggestions for mine, just haven't had the chance to pull the tranny yet... Time will tell...

Dude, spoiler looks NICE! Becky FTW!

I really like that! I know all of our cars can't get really dirty in nasty weather, and the rear on mine seems to collect a lot of crap. I don't have a spoiler on my car and was wondering if a spoiler will actually help eliminate as much buildup back there.

Yes, indeed. Man I love this thing. Not sure which I like more... the H grille or Blade spoiler... :D

I'm not sure but there certainly was a bunch "o" crud under the factory one...

Hey. If you'd like I'll give you My factory one. You just need to repaint it???

Lemme know. you get first dibs. :D

NICE. :headbang:

Get some meaty tires, then together all that and the supercar coilovers will leave you with an incredibly well-balanced car! (Are you thinking of upgrading brakes, too?)

wheels and tires are next.

Pete is on me to get the brakes done also... but I'm so lost as to what the right choice is... just rotors and pads.... or full on brake upgrade...

SS brake lines and rotors and pads???? so many options I'm just :mad0259:

:laugh:

so for now I'm gonna hold off on brakes.... Need to get my head around that one still.

If you're thinking of going the whole 9 yards with THR 22...my humble suggestion would be to do the CTS-V front brake upgrade Pete did to his Camaro way back when (or...I guess now we could call it the ZL1 front brake upgrade)...the 6-pots and larger rotors will help with heat dissipation after reigning in all 700+ of those horses you plan on. :D

IMO...if you're going to track it, at all...SS brakes won't cut it. (Plus, the bigger calipers will look great inside of 20"+ wheels.)

20+ ??? :confused0068:

:laugh: 20's thank you... ;)

Agreed, but I need to decide how serious I am about tacking it... cus a set of track wheels will most likely be 18's....

right now I'm more interested in seperate clutch and brake master cyls....

Anxiously waiting for someone to come up with a bolt on kit.

Thank the Camaro gods...;)

I remember a looooong time ago you were telling me how awesome 22's looked on the car...:D

Wow! Thanks for an awesome offer! I'm leaning though to getting the same you just put on. I've got Maureen's quote and been putting it off. I really like the way it looks!

22's look awesome on everything!
Gotta go mow... Later :D

22s where is PQ????

Pete, you have a visitor message (from about a week or so ago)

Chris - what my racing friend's helping me realize is that you don't really need a big brake kit unless you're running long sessions that are overheating the ones you have causing them to fade. just get a good set of rotors, pads, & SS lines, and you should be good... unless you're gonna start racing it

The brembos are pretty darn good brakes. I did swap out my rotors, pads, and got stainless steel lines. The ss lines make a BIG difference in how the brakes feel. No more mushy pedal.

That's kinda where I'm headed. My car will see Autox a few times a year... Maybe a road course a couple times a year...

I'm thinkng for now Stock brembos, upgraded rotors Pads and lines. :thumbsup:

According to Pete, he thinks for a rid like mine that is a DD, a spare set of wheels and tires is the better use of my money.

He can have mine as well, then he can put one on the hood... seriously...:bellyroll: or the roof top...

Down Force YO!!!! :laughabove:

Nah, I'll just drive a week blue, then a week red and then swap back :D

GTAHVIT is putting my dealers out of business with his standing offer to do FREE Pedders installations. It may be false advertising, because he expects free beer and pizza for his efforts :D
