But kudos for having the ***** to do it. I don't like it all but at least you're putting hard work into a Camaro, hopefully one day the REAL Camaro bug will bite you!

If I was a mod/admin, I would have sent you on a temporary vacation already! [/SIZE]


Jealous....never...and thats why you're not admin. And I'll keep my **** right here and nothing you can really do about it. Check all my other posts, while others post its the best thing since bread, I'm merely showing why it isn't. And to VW guy, I am fully aware about active handling suspension systems, my reference was to hydrolics like the LOLO's have. Not ride height adjustment systems that are not so extreme.

I don't know who VW is, but I was the one talking about active suspensions.

Hydraulics are hydraulics as far as I'm concerned. Whether it be on an airplane, tractor or car, it's the same principle. When it specifically concern cars though, lowriders have already got everything figured out. 12 volt motors, 12 volt dump valves, etc... So why not adapt that technology in a new and creative way? It's going to act as an adjustable upper shock mount for the coilovers. So you still have the great coilovers for handling, but you can do so much more.

Thanks for the pics.

It looks like your front tires are narrow enough that you didn't have to cut that outer lip that hangs down. I'm running 285 fronts and that lip will have to be removed. I guess I can figure out a way to do it. I could probably remove that whole outer triangle shaped reinforcement if I brace the tubs. Don't you think?

Do you think you could take the guts out of a standard 10 switch switchbox and stuff them inside the center console for a more clean route?

haha, hell yeah

we could roll around with the front plate hidden, then if you ever get pulled over, just flip it back out. when the officer tries to write you a ticket for no front plate, just say "what are you talking about? i have a front plate"

then they go up front to check and they're all like.....WTF?

Hey Kenny, I remember you said you were going to switch the front bags to a different setup, did you see my thread on these strut bags?
https://ls1tech.com/forums/suspension-brakes/803631-air-ride-using-your-front-shocks-350-a.html
Nevermind, I remember telling you already.

Does a bag with a 1/4 NPT fitting mean the hole is 1/4" in diameter?
This is the bag:
https://www.universalairsuspension.c...f9225591d1eed8

Is that size port going to limit how fast the bag can be filled?

Is it better to mount the valves inside the car so they stay clean or on the outside so you can't hear them?

the 1/4 will limit it a lil but if you dont care about hopping it then i wouldnt worry about it
the shock waves on my dads 57 have 1/4" holes in them and the speed is good 4 that car
it has the airride big red valves

the vavles are in the car on my wifes camaro i just ran a dump line out side so u can hear it

but mounting the outside would be fine also

I was just re-reading this thread. I think this is the car your talking about.
