You will notice a big difference in the handling, thats for sure. I may switch from the regular rear sway to the Extreme anti roll bar set up though.

I have all Pfadt stuff, but I love what the springs, sways,and cradle bushings do for how the car handles and launches.

They have a 20% off end of summer sale right now, on top of their already reduced prices for Camaro parts. I go back and forth between that BMR set up, and this Hotchkis kit. Now I'm leaning toward the Hotchkis kit. If the brace doesnt cut it for me, I can always sell it and get some cradle inserts.

Like the vette, I could never own a red car though. We had a red loaner one, and the color just kinda irritated me. I had a red jewel tint traverse, but it is much more different than that. Is it the "torch red"?

The red vette looks great to me.

If you, RS_Man or any other 2nd gen Camaro owners need any seat covers, I have a set in black from National Parts Depot that I would sell you.
