Speaking of tools, those bricks don't look too safe, I'd get some proper blocks or jack stands. Just sayin....

It was supported by jack stands on the frame of the car, we just put bricks under the rotors for support to take tension off of the brake line that's all....

Good job woo. Post up your impressions. I saw a yellow camaro heading south in Houston that looked exactly like yours yesterday.

After heavy debate about getting heat stroke today, i decided to not touch the camaro and take the bike out for a 4.5 hour trip today. This will be a good spot to bring the car back to.

I just successfully started my Camaro today. 2012 LFX(V6) to L99/TR6060 w/VVT swap in my backyard.


L99/TR6060 1LS swap in the making.

I can't do a proper write up just yet. After install I took it for a ride and I didn't like what I heard. I heard rattling when I hit bumps. I'm not sure if it's something I did wrong so I must troubleshoot and I really don't know where to start. I did everything in order and replaced all parts back the way they came off so I don't know what the malfunction could be but as for hitting those bumps I didn't feel the "slam" I felt with the stock struts and shocks. It felt firm but at the same time absorbed the impact of you will. Idk, I have to get back to the issue at hand and pin point the rattle, sounds like I have tools back there somewhere, smh. I know I didn't screw this job up cause it was straight forward and simple just time consuming.....

Still working issue but the ones I purchased aren't adjustable (they do come adjustable) and they cost $455 for the set.

You should really brag about yourself just a little more.
Seems like a major accomplishment nobody else has had the patience to see all the way out.
Here is the link to the build. Hope you don't mind Marion?

Thanks, I believe I may take them off and send them back after reading that. I thought it was something I did but this many people can't be wrong about this product and having these issues. I had zero noise with stock just had issues rough ride because I lowered it, I'll take the rough ride over this awful noise every day of the week! Wasted all day yesterday doing it now I'll spend today undoing it yaaaaaaaaay NOT and whatever else I can't think of, disgusted to say the least....

That sucks, if the glass is half full then you could look at it like got to spend time with your Bee learning about it, use those cool tools, and get some experience.
But yeah it still sucks.

Yea true, it doesn't totally suck. I don't know much about cars and the mechanics of it all so I've been slowly trying my hand at things and thought I nailed this one til I drove it hahaha but from what I read it's not on me so I'm good there. I'm really glad I didn't spend $600 for a mechanic to put these on and then have this result, I'd be sick to my stomach.....
