I have a 01 SS camaro, Procharged, methanol injected,
It is a street car, I use it mostly for street cruse, street drag, maybe a track day or two once a year, so what i am saying its a street car.

OK i need some advice on some suspension mods,

Of course i will be installing a set of weld in rail sub fram connectors, the ones you can see from the side of car,

A spohn bolt in tq arm with built in driveshaft loop

some rear control arms, maybe adjustable

Ok on Shocks , i was interested in some that will perform good over the stockers, ones that will be good for street use with out making the car feel sloopy

Please help
thank you

You will get a lot of opinions on shocks.Do you want a car to handle on curves too or are you concerned with only straight line drag racing?
I wanted a car that would be good for stoplight racing and would be glued to the ground on curves in canyons.My choice was the koni sa shocks.It depands on your budget and how you want your car to perform.
The koni's ride really nice too.

You say its a street car, but its still not clear what you're after. Do you want the best all around performance, or are you after a drag shock?

Koni SAs (single adjustable, man. No other way to go. I'm not sure what the PN is. Just order up a set from your favorite speed shop.

Even though you mention it's street car, I'd like to include a link to this very informative sticky:

The member who wrote this is spot on. FWIW, your street car will have some compromises, though what I can say is that you might not have to spend much to get a lot in return, provided your goals are realistic.

Of course my vote goes for the Koni SA's, however I think that anybody should call their vendor of choice and arrange all questions before spending any money, even on well engineered and warrantied items. Direct conversations with the vendor you'll be purchasing from helps to really establish the consumer to vendor relationship for customer service and technical support questions.

My vendor of choice would be Sam Strano, whom you may want to call.

Konis have adjustable rebound. Compression stays the same. That's ok though as most springs don't really need the compression adjusted for the suspension to work properly.

I'd also recomend Konis if you are just doing the track once in a while and not planning hardcore drag racing.
