I have the front sub. It's a good system. For the same money I would consider Chassisworks

Yes, I did see an older video (4 or 5 years old maybe) of a white and also orange 2nd gen. Looked nice. The orange one was running the rear IRS system.

Give randy at d&z a call. He helped heidts with a few improvements to the pro g line. Randy is also a very nice guy with loads of information.

I highly recommend Randy. I know their second gen Camaro handled well. I think their first gen sub was an older design but maybe it's been updated by now.

Chassis works.. Big $$$ and lots of cutting and fab work, it looked like, unless I missed something.

Actually, we were the first to introduce a replacement front clip for the Camaro. There's a few thousand of them running around all over the world.

You may have been looking at the complete gStreet chassis. That's a great system but it sounds like it's probably overkill for your build. We offer a bolt-on clip that goes in place of the stocker and uses all the stock mounting points. It will accept up to a 10" tire.

There are three levels of suspension depending on whether you want to primarily track, street, or drag race the car. From what you said before, I would suggest the 7701-2 "Option" system. It gives improved ride quality and is competition proven, too. The entire system, from the frame to the spindles, is engineered and manufactured in house. Both of the cars pictured below were running this system.

Details on ALL current Camaro suspension options can be viewed in this downloadable guide.
I wouldn't open it from a phone, it's pretty big. Also, you can just call me. My extension is 247.

Cool!!! Thanks!!!
Yes primarily street/hwy use. Not looking to cut up the floors or anything like that, other than mini tubs, or clearance for subframe connectors etc.
