It's been a while . . . . UPDATEI've now decided to keep the Camaro.
The jobs what need doing are as follows :
SuspensionShe's too high and handles like a pig.
To correct this I've now got a set of Eibach Sportlines (cheers Craig) and have just ordered a set of Tokico Illumina shocks.
Next I replace the Panhard with an adjustable one and fit a Strut brace but Shock/springs first.
GearboxYep, surprisingly it's still Fooked ! - Have recently spoke to a guy recommended by Hauser and it's looking like £450 will do the job.
Providing the physical damage isn't too bad.
LSDAlready brought. Needs fitting.
Spoke to Hauser . . . Will probably book it in in July.
ExhaustWhen she's "legal" again I'm going to get a custom dual system fitted.
Simple.
Niggly BitsMy camaro's interior is actually pretty darn good.
It needs some trim pieces fitting (which I already have) and needs the headlining doing (again !).
No biggie, and no major outlay - just little things I wanna get done.
New wheels / tyresThis'll be a next year job for sure - and depends on where my new suspension leaves me !
The plan is to get more rubber on the back. I've done my measurements and researched rims and tyres and reckon I can get at least 40mm more width on the back.
Further Chassis/SuspensionIF this time next year I'm still in a position to keep her I'll be looking at fully poly-bushing her.
I'll also replace all the track rod ends/ idler arm / etc . . as they're looking a bit tired.
There's a couple of additional bolt-ons that I'll consider but this depends on how she fairs with the new springs and shocks/struts.
EngineMine's Fooked.
But she'll probably last another smoke-filled year.
The plan then will be to (LATE next year) to get a 350ci sorted.
Nothing insane . . . just reliable and tough.
Then the Gearbox will explode - but that's another day . . . .
