Also, what can you do to the regular C5/FRC to upgrade to better suspension than a Z06?
Thanx

Re: What suspension mods does a Z06 have that a C5/FRC doesn't? It is basically a slightly refined Z51 setup. I think the rear bar and/or spring is slightly different from a normal Z51.

Re: What suspension mods does a Z06 have that a C5/FRC doesn The FRC was made between 1999-2000. The Z06 came out in 2001.......i know you probably already knew that, but the reason i'm stating it is because in 2001 the Z51 suspension package was upgraded. While the Z06 (FE4) suspension package goes even futher. Here's a quick suspension comparison between an FRC and a Z06:
Z06 Front Sway Bar is bigger then FRC
Z06 Rear Sway Bar is bigger then FRC
Z06 Front Spring is Stiffer then FRC
Z06 Rear Spring is Stiffer then FRC
Not sure about the shocks, but i would bet that they too are stiffer then the FRC.

As far as suspension upgrades go (better then Z06), Theres Bilstien Sports shocks, or even stiffer T1 shocks. Then there the Hotchkis Sway Bars or even bigger T1 Sway Bars, But as far as Springs go i think the only springs available that are stiffer then the Z06 is the T1 Springs.
