Congrats. what are the hubs from? Seems like a good straight forward swap.

Looks good!

The hubs are Camaro rotors with the rotor section machined off.
Now does anyone know of a store in the Bridgewater or Ewing area that has the new issue on sale yet? I still can't find it anywhere...the anticipation is killing me.

I am trying to remember to stop at the Quik Check on 31 in Ewing after work tonight to see if they have it. I'll let you know if they do since it's right down the street from TSC.

does that come with posi??:-o

HardcoreZ28 02-02-2006 04:41 PM

Yeah LS1 rears will work. I'm actually still running drums. And the $500 doesn't include machine work as noted in the spreadsheet.

Bah....just reading this now, and completely forgot to stop at Quik Check. If you're gonna be down here this weekend, check there - they have a good selection of car mags.

Ha no problem bro. I found it at Barnes and Noble and Borders...got 8 copies....I need like 4 more...hopefully I'll find them tomorrow.

NJSPEEDER 02-02-2006 09:09 PM

does teh article say what rims these brakes will clear?
jstu wondering if they are even close to fitting under stock 16's or if 17+'s are a must.

WayFast84 02-02-2006 09:11 PM

BTW how do you get your car into mags??

which ones....you better not have cleaned out all the ones up in the Bridgewater area.......i was gonna pick it up this weekend when i go see my girl (Whitehouse Station)!!!!!

HardcoreZ28 02-03-2006 08:53 AM

I hit Barnes and Noble in Bridgewater, but not Borders.

Tim...I actually forgot to mention anything about the wheels. I believe 17's are a must though...and if you get really fancy and use the new 6 piston Z06 calipers from a C6 (direct bolt on for C5's) then you need 18's.

As for getting the car in a magazine...it takes a lot of hard work and pestering of editors...plus you have to have something that catches their eye.
