Whats this stuff worth??? Local delaer that runs a race team out of their shop(Motorola Cup/SCAA) has a Z06 that their doing a full race set-up on. The car doesn't even have a 100 miles on the clock.
Anyway there going with a full T-1 setup, along with exhaust, gutted interior, and a cage that looks like a spider web.
I know that I can pick up a full Z06 suspension(springs, swaybars, shocks) and the titanium exhaust from them. Dont know about the wheels though. If I make an offer on the suspension and exhaust, whats a fair price? I could also grab the upper/lower A-arms if there different from the standard C-5... dont know if they are, or not. The T-1 comes with them, so there available also.
Thanks,
Mike

Re: Whats this stuff worth??? Thanks for the input guys <img src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" border="0">
I have first pick at the stuff, so I'll sort of feel them out on how much they want. I didnt know that the springs went for that much new <img src="gr_eek2.gif" border="0">
Anyone happen to ride in both a Z51 setup and a ZO6? If so, does it ride much rougher? Stiffer doesn't bother me, but I dont really want it to rattle my teeth either.
Thanks,
Mike

Re: Whats this stuff worth??? The Z06 springs can be had from a "discount" GM dealer for around $800. The swaybars can be had for $250 for the pair. All that leaves is the shocks, which I'd guess would be a few hundred...so new maybe $1300-$1500 worth of stuff. Offer them $500 for everything and see if they bite?

Re: Whats this stuff worth??? I agree with jmX. Offer them a low amount and see if they bite.....but i wouldn't go beyond $1200, heck at that price you might as well get a "Brand New" setup.
FYI: The control arms (upper & lower) are same for all C5's including the Z06.
