In Need Of Z28 Brake Duct Bracket

Probably a long shot, but wondering if anyone has part 22943667 laying around?

It’s the driver side brake duct bracket. I was able to get the passenger side, but can’t find driver’s side anywhere....

As a guy who painfully shopped for a used truck for a month, you should have snapped that deal up instantly.

The Hawk HP Plus are not remotely considered a good pad for this car on a track.

I don't think I had good luck with those on my Focus ST, even.

I paid $30K for mine...Recaros, NPP, 1SS, and 200 miles on it. In 2016.

The Recaros are nearly a must have IMO, and yours should command top dollar. I'm not sure that's $30K though, when 6 gens...

The stuff in the blue can? I'm not sure that's an upgrade from the OEM fluid..IMHO…. based on trying it once in my Focus ST.

Castrol SRF is highly recommended.

I'm assuming you are using OEM brake fluid? I wouldn't personally use the OEM pads for a track day, but I absolutely wouldn't use the OEM brake fluid for a track day.

I have the backup camera on my 1SS.

As far as the pricing...that's high for a '13, or even a '14 or '15 without Recaros.
IMO.

Guess I should have ignored the "available 8/3/18" note on Tirerack's website. I didn't go any farther when I saw that and started calling around until I found a set. lol

I think the RE71's are out until August...I was thankful to snag a set last week at the local Firestone dealer.

I can't see myself trying a different tire.

Way too high at $29K.

Would look for a 14/15 with Recaros, which can be had for a lot less than $29K.

I paid $30K for a 15 1SS with Recaros and NPP and only 200 miles.

I think it will be hard to find a decent 1LE for $20K, but $25K will get you something nice....like this.....https://chicago.craigslist.org/nwi/cto/d/2014-camaro-ss-1le/6606365424.html

You could probably get close to $25K for the 1LE. So with the $10K you want to put into a S/C, you're almost at ZL1 money.

I can't see pads and tires only making 2 or 3 track days. Probably no more than 6 though, based on what I'm seeing after 4 track days and 2 AutoX.

But, still, $1400 for a set of tires and $350...

If that price is firm, they ain't selling it anytime soon. $30K+ is what the cream of the crop of used Gen 5 1LE's go for....which that 2013 is certainly not.
