HAHA!

Im waiting on some shims because it looks like the cleaance between the bearing and the axle when I tighten the axle nut is tooo tight because its binding on something!

Once I get this hicup smoothed out hopefully Ill have finished pics

I really wish I could of gone that route with my Corvette brakes, I absolutely love the looks, and would be a big benefit if I went test n tuning again, but I wanted to keep my ZR1 rims, so I had to opt for the C5 brakes, still nice, but nowhere near as sweet as those..

drmrman · 11-15-2010, 08:34 AM

Thanks! Yeah because you dont need to get new rims the c5 brakes are a fraction of the cost of these Z's... The new rims and tires were an additional 1600 bucks tacked onto the project :/ kind of rough but I think it was worth it!

Im also thinking about ditching these rims and tires and going to factory spec GS rims. I want 19x12 in the rear
