Z07 Suspension
Could someone please elaborate on what Z07 suspension is.
All I have been able to find out is that it is either "heavier duty suspension", "adjustable suspension", or "handling suspension". What parts are different etc.?

i believe the z07 suspension had thicker front sway bar, 13" rotors in the front, oil cooler, and FX3 adjustable suspension?
That may not be 100% accurate.

something like:
Z-07 freak = Z07 option questions
Wow. With pressure like that I guess I should post a informative answer now.
Z07 is a package, titled "adjustible suspension package", available from 1991-1995 on coupes only.
The Z07 includes;
FE7 - "heavy duty" suspension (which includes stronger springs, thicker sway bars, larger front SLA, and fast steering ratio)
J55 - 13" heavy duty brakes (became standard on all Vettes in `95 &`96)
FX3 - adjustible shock absorbers
KC4 - engine oil cooler (on `91s only)
driver & passenger 6-way power seats (most have the optional "sport" seats)
electronic A/C
Delco/Bose CD & cassette Gold stereo
6-speed manual or 4-sp auto which required G92 3.07 performance axle.

Sound seems more applicable on some posts. That reminds me of those emails circulating showing all those hotties with and without makeup.

The springs, are the biggest component that comes to mind for the 1990 year
FX3/Z51 cars combined, have base springs
Obviously, in 1993+ cars, the wider wheels make up a big part as well
