LG Motorsports G2 coil over package updates for 2016
We have some exciting new products coming for 2016 and some updates on existing products like our G2 line which I am going to go over here.
Our G2 coil over suspension line started in 1993 on the 4th generation Camaro's and continues to this day with our latest design for the 7th generation Corvette. The G2's have won countless times in both pro and regional classes in autoX, road racing, and drag racing alike.
What has been at the core of all of the G2 packages has been our long running relationship with Bilstein Motorsports in making parts and designs to meet our needs and our customer's demands in performance and quality.
As you well know....our G2 line is one tough cookie!
For 2016 we have a shock update that is going to make this package even better with little to no impact on pricing (to be released in January).
Our current G2 shocks
New G2 shock for 2016
New shock end cap
This is going to be the new shock that is supplied with all kits that will phase in during 2016. You will still have LG Motorsports proven mounting kits and top quality HyperCo springs going with each G2 set, along with our custom valving per your order.
What is new is a fine threaded shock body that will give the end user more accurate adjustments when corner balancing the car. Also new is a threaded on end cap protective cover for the floating rod guide. This acts also as a bump stop caps for those cars that require bump stops when needed. This new cap will help keep debris and dirt from the guide as well for longer service life.
This new modular design is also slightly lighter than the prior generation shock too, which is an added bonus! Total car sets will be about 1/2 lb lighter than last generation.
Of course we will always support older generation G2's as long as we possibly can. This new design does interchange shafts and pistons so rebuilds can still be done on older designs the same as the new shocks.
LG Motorsports, always improving the breed through racing!

Wish someone would have told me because I would have waited for the new design. Not happy.
If these are the ones for the Florida Speed and Power order, there would have been no way to have the new shocks in time for your event, as they didn't arrive here until after that event was over for almost a full week.
Internals of the shocks however use the same parts and the kits are still built with the same care, and specs as we have in the past.

If I would have known a revised version was coming out I would have gladly waited, $3k is a chunk of change, especially when a week later a new better version comes out.

I am sorry, the info provided to me at the time by the person ordering the kit was the car had to make the event. At that time, the old body shock was the only option to do.
Either way the same springs and valving would have been used in either shock setup.
I have customers running well over 10 years on the older design with zero issues so this isn't done to fix anything so much as it is to make the parts more globally universal to what they are doing in Europe right now.

Almost caught up on all back orders.
Currently it looks like I will have stock left after all current orders are assembled, to build a few more before the next batch of parts arrives from Bilstein.

Knocking out current orders this week, and should have enough parts left for a couple more sets before the next batch arrives if anyone is looking for one of the best coil over kits on the market for Corvette!

If you have been thinking about grabbing a set before summer is over, now is a good time.
I am wrapping up the latest builds right now and have enough parts to do another couple sets before I am out again. We are building them faster than Bilstein can keep up with!!
Ring me or Cesar here at the shop before we run out!!
The shocks alone, no. You will need a simulator that we sell separately for those cars
So you guys do have a simulator now Anthony? No need to take the car into the dealer to have the computer adjusted on Z51 cars anymore?
Can you share some info on the simulator? What does it look like? Where does it go? Cost? Loved by coilovers on my C6 and would love to have them on my c7 was just waiting on a viable solution other than just turning the stock components off.

Having a new model done right now that should just plug into the ends of the harness at the corners of the car. I'll have pricing and pics here shortly.
