Lol, heck my whole dash is lit up all the time... The only way I can get rid of it is to install a MOTEC dash, which is in the near future...

The following stay lit up...
TPMS,
SRS,
Oil Level
Traction Control,
Etc...

Yeah I have TPMS, traction control and stability control lit up. If I can help it I don't want anything else lit up, but I guess we will find out once I get the seats and have them installed.

I also need a new rear drivers side shock from lingenfelter, mine is blown....

I've been fortunate, I have the Peddars XA Supercars and with them being out of business in the US, I suppose if mine ever go out I'll probably go to Penske's or something of that nature...

Yeah not sure why....but I just found out what the clanging noise was after getting my new exhaust. I guess that's why the rear end kicked out when I launched

I believe pedders made my coilovers and lingenfelter changed the spring specs and sells them as the drag coilovers.

I did not know that... And yes I'm guessing you figured out where the noise came from... Lol...

I know the Peddars are rebuildable, however I have my reasons that if one or more goes out, I'll move to a different brand altogether... Maybe sell these to someone else after getting them all rebuilt/checked...

Yeah, I just hope we can contact lingenfelter or pedders on Monday and get a new rear shock. What brand are you looking at?

I've looked at Ridetech, and I've looked at Penske... Since Pete knows my car, I would talk with him and get his recommendation before any purchase... I tend to push things really hard and break stuff often... I try to use the best available at this point though it's a progression in upgrading items I have already installed...

Not sure if anyone is aware, but the Pedders was all Whiteline out of Australia, so you can still source all of the products from any Whiteline dealer. As far as I know they still make them all.

My replacement rear shock cartridges should be here next week from Melbourne, Australia. This weekend I will be replacing my brake pads and installing my BMR suspension with my buddies help (drives #37 hellcat challenger).

BMR drive shaft safety loop
BMR lower control arms, rear, non-adjustable, poly bushing
BMR trailing arms
BMR toe rods, rear, non-adjustable, polyurethane

Sorry for the delay in updating my build thread...Their was some miscommunication over at Pedders in Melbourne, Australia so I was shipped the wrong part (waited 2 weeks for the wrong part). I guess they failed to realize I had the Lingenfelter supercar drag coilovers and I was sent the 'regular' camaro shock replacements so I had to wait an additional 2 weeks for the correct part to get shipped over.

However, the good news is they have been replaced and my BMR suspension has been installed. Very stiff in the rear now, I can tell im not losing any energy due to unwanted velocity vectors and I am getting off the line a lot faster since she is hooking.

Hey DJ, did you cut a hole to install your ZL1 fuel pump, or drop the tank?

(I know...off topic...but thats where I am at with my build)

Nice build man! Did I miss reading the base numbers in your build thread? What were they? Have you been to the track yet?

Just to add about your Air bag lights, that's not something your tuner can fix, it comes from another BCM, that HPT does not read.
