Default Forgive me...
I swore that I was going to try and not do things to my Camaro only for the sake of looks if it hurt performance in any significant way. Well, I was weak.

While my single piston rear disc brakes were more than sufficient for the job of slowing the car they looked lost inside the back wheel. Also, they didn't have a parking brake, which wasn't an issue with an auto trans, but more of one with the new six-speed.

But those are just excuses.. I was sucked in by the bling and I feel dirty and ashamed...

How could you? Do you really expect us to forgive such an action.

STEVE , I MUST SAY THAT THE WILWOODS ARE NICE. So nice in fact that I think I might sell my BAER 6S front and rear system for a new Wilwood system.

We've got those on the back of the Vette with the matching 14" SL6 fronts. It definitely brings the car to a stop in a BIG hurry!
