great pics, were you worried about chipping your front bumper etc? Ive noticed quite a few drivers tape up their front end as a precaution.

The MM XD arms are great, I dont even know they're there.

Im not concered about the paint, after the first handful of track events, my worries about keeping the paint in one piece slowly deminshed. You can't race a show car....but you can show a race car.

Nice to see you giving the Vettes your rear view. I'll have to make a trip next up to Watkins, looks like a good time.

Yea, they were fun. The C5 was no problem, the C6 however did put up a good fight, until his instructor told him to back off because he wasnt following the proper line anymore.

The car has coil overs and the control arms are parallel to ground, as recommended by MM. The NT01s do fine in the rain, but I dont ever push it if its wet. I ran slicks up front, only because my NT01s for the fronts were shot from a previous track day, and I didnt bring a set of rain tires. Thanks for the compliments guys.

Hmmm my car has coil overs and pretty much everything else you have listed as well. My control arms are level with the ground and it doesn't look as low as that. :smmon:

I may have to double check.

What brand k-member and a-arms? Coil overs..

Ah actually I have the stock a-arm. I forget with control arms - I have I'll have to look over the mod list again. Obviously it's one that works with the stock k-member... I will soon be swapping the k-member out.

Again incredible stance. I saved the pics.

Any vids?:beer:

is there a write up about how to fit GT500 front brakes? never seen this done before

He custom made a bracket for the caliper and the 14" rotor just slapped right on.

Sick car man, I can't wait to have a more beefy suspension setup to tackle some turns like that. Great driving and awesome car.

BTW, how much do your front tires rub? I've got 275 yokohamas on 18x9" saleen wheels up front with an inch or so of wheel gap and I'm rubbing on the fenders all the time on the street. My front coilovers are even stiffer than yours also.
