Base C5 GM Susp Upgrade - C6 Z51 Sway Bars - C6 Z06 Shocks - At CULTRAG Performance!
=&2013 C6 Z51 Sway Bars!
Greetings Friends,
We have the Z51 sway bars kit with the Genuine GM bushings for $269.99
The reason people use these bars most on the C5’s and the C6’s is because unless you’re running 325 width tires in the rear, these are the way to go. These bars don’t cause the vehicle to ride “stiffer” per se. They are mostly for the cornering ability.
You know that feeling when you’re going into the turn and the car leans pretty heavily? These bars are meant to make the vehicle feel flatter in the turns and corner much better in the turns. Another advantage is the handling when you’re coming out of the turn. When you come out of the turns you will not be fighting the wheel as much as you would with the stock bars. These bars, since they’re thicker, make it easier all the way through the turns.
Below are the specifications and comparisons of the C6 Z51 sway bars compared to other Corvette suspension packages.
We offer these sway bars with the 2013 C6 Z06 shocks. Also, whether it is a C5 or C6, coupled with the 2013 C6 Z06 shocks it makes a total different handling package. This package speaks for itself as we have many testimonials from many customers from whom we sold these to here on the forum!

=&2013 C6 Z06 Shocks!
We sell the 2013 C6 Z06 shocks for $309.95. Many C5 customers ask us why we don’t recommend the 2004 shocks over the 2013. Many people also say that the C6 shocks are only developed for the C6. If you look at all of the basic suspension components between the C5 and C6, they are very much the same. The reason we don’t recommend the 2004 Z06 shocks over the 2013 C6 Z06 shocks is simply because of the price and customer feedback. We have many customers who have tried both sets of shocks and cannot tell the difference between the two, so why not purchase the lesser expensive set!
For the C5, not C5 Z06, we also recommend the C6 Z51 sway bar kit. The C6 Z51 sway bar kit coupled with the 2013 C6 Z06 shocks is our most popular suspension and handling upgrade for the C5.
I am about to purchase locally some used c6 z06 shocks and a c6 z06 front only sway bar because I read the front is the same z06 or z51. Am I able to order a c6 z51 rear sway bar separate or do I have to buy the whole front/rear kit? If front only could you please PM me a price? Thanks!! Also do these work well with the stock c5 tire size 245/275 or should I also look into wider wheels and tires for these?

You can purchase the sway bar and bushings separately. Please send me an email to gene@cultragperformance.com with the zip code and I will take a look at it for you. You'll be good with the tire size.
I'm new to doing track days in a Corvette, but I have a bit of experience in other cars. The stock setup was pretty sloppy on my 98 -Z51 so I ordered the sways, shocks and endlinks listed above. The car is WAY more neutral, much more flat through the turns but not harsh at all on the street. I'm very happy with this setup for the street and track.
Gene,
What is your price for GM T1 front and rear bars with end links? My zip is 18064.
Thank you
Dan

Thank you for your business and the valuable feedback.
Have installed the sways, shocks, and metal end link from Cultrag. Made a huge improvement on the handling of the car. While I do not track the car I do appreciate how level the car is entering fast corners.
