"Feels like a race car now!!"

Nothing wrong with that! I still feel like this came on over time however, the brakes have been the biggest bummer of a 'mod' I've made. So I have to believe this weird vibration came on about the time I put those on. And got a little worse as the rotors wore.

I was working in the garage with a jack and my rented torque wrench exploded the first time I used it...so...I locktited the caliper bolts. Wonder if I'll ever get them back off.

That's gonna depend on which locktite you used. You might have to use some heat when it's time to remove them. Oh and just so you know, like I said I was gonna do, I did drive my Camaro around for quite a bit yesterday while out cruising with the nannies left on, and I like to say I'm always connected to my Camaro when we're out, and the fact that I do drive her a lot and can feel and hear when anything pops up, I DID notice some diifferent and slight vibrations and noises from my front wheels. So maybe?

I was out again yesterday on a longer drive too. Now I'm not so sure. It was cooler and ran really well with them on. Also, I have to admit, the nannies have become a 'psychological crutch' now. I tell me myself I've used them for so long, I'm NOT in tune with what the car might do without them.

I can do pretty well steering into the rear wheels breaking loose with T/C off but not sure I could act quick enough with the whole car getting loose while cornering. Crazy to become mind-effed by your car's nannies!

Yep, it's a whole nother ball game driving with them off! You for sure have to know your car's limits, and YOUR's too.... If the road is wet, I will for sure leave them on.
