Camaro IRS
 

Is anyone working on installing the new IRS in a 1st Gen car?

Appears to be a compact casset style package.

They appear to be awfully wide which will make it difficult to put in any of our cars and look halfway decent. The hot ticket for IRS that can be narrowed is the Mustang Cobra from the previous bodystyle.

If the dimensions aren't restrictive it appears it wouldn't be overly complex to fab mounts. Just looking forward and thinking out loud.

i´m trying this at the moment
 

but it´s a very very tight fit and my camaro is widened about 2" on both sides and runnin 12" 325x25/20" c5 wheels with spacers

Pictures please! I knew someone would be on it!

top secret , :rolleyes:

















Yes Im being sarcastic , see first post genius

It's from the new Hot Wheels Camaro.

Looks like you're talking about kicking the whole rear frame the hell out of the car, that only to fit that thing, and it's not the lighterst you'de get, I'd rather use a 5 link (and I'm not really fan of it either) that THAT IRS setup, unless you take out the rear frame rails and adapt the setup to them, and in the process make it lighter.

we havent looked into the camaro iRS but we are in the process of shoehorning C-4 in the bak of this 68.

the fab work in the rear is done, we were able to keep the C-4 in its full width (did not have to narrow) but that is only because the owner is fine with a new style wheel (allot of back spacing).

Anyone know the hub to hub width?

What year is it and is it a 36 or a 44 ?
How much HP are you puttin to it ? Not to scare you , guys that run sticky slicks, with 11 wheels tend to be hard on wheel bearings . Its a yearly thing with a few AX guys .
I bet you know about that ...
Nice build , would like to see more .
I think 84-95 was one width 96 up was a little wider .

Hey sandbagger,
we actually build our own housing and cover that utilizes the Dana 44 gears and Truetrac limited slip. http://www.newmancarcreations.com/products/

The 84-87 suspensions have the same track width @ 60" and the 88-96 are a little wider @61-1/2" We used the early style on this build.

the owner is hoping to jet 400HP out this car so we are not too worried about braking things at this point.

here are some more pictures of the build
