Has anybody installed PFADT coilovers and Phatty Sway Bar on a C5? If so did you enjoy the suspension change. I am planning on doing some Autocross when I can. Thanks

Bars are on, coil overs sitting in the garage

 

We sell tons of their stuff to AutoX and RC guys

I've got the Pfadt coil overs on my car and love 'em! I really haven't noticed that much difference in the ride over my stock suspension.

 

I have the Pfadt Coilovers and T1 sways and love them! Initially after installing them I wasn't noticing a huge difference, if anything I found the car a little too twitchy and non-confidence inspiring. But I had the car aligned and corner balanced by a highly acclaimed race shop here in CT to AMAZING results. I also had to set the shocks a little less stiff. Now it's amazing and I can't wait to run some Auto-X events next year. Huge improvement over stock, like a go-cart.

 

Had PFADT put on at the end of the summer (have Z06 sways) and love it. I took my Vette on the track back in Sept and it was a blast. No ride change noticed.

 

I have the Pfadt coil overs, Pfatty sway bars, and camber/caster kit. I autocross and open track the car. I'm really happy with how the car handles! The ride adjustment is nice, though I don't change it much, I've set the front and rear coil overs at 8, and the sways at the softest setting, and pretty much left them alone. I've noticed no detriment in ride quality and the car is much better planted on rough surfaces. Our local road course is extemely bumpy. With this suspension set up the car just eats up the bumps and doesn't get pitched around. On smooth surfaces the cornering is mind boggling! I plan to play with the adjustments next year. I also plan to do the pillow blocks and urethane control arm bushings over winter. Another bonus, the customer service from Jordan, Aaron and Robin is exceptional! The Pfatty bars are so big that, when using the factory sway bar mounts, you can end up having the bars overtight, if that happens, the bar doesn't rotate as well as it could, in the bushing, and will give you a slightly choppy ride. Jordan has a really easy washer trick to solve this. If you're doing the pillow blocks, the washer trick isn't needed. Hope this helps. Oh, one other thing, I highly recommend the camber/caster kit with Aarons alignment settings. Really helps the car turn in, and helps save the outside edge of the tires!

 

I run the same set up and completely agree

 

C/o's, comp bars, pillow blocks, poly bushings.

 

I have the Pfadt coil overs and Pfatty Bars. The ride is still comfortable. I went with a lighter setting of 4 all the way around with a middle of the road sway setting.

I also have the Poly bushings and Hevy duty ball joints.

The ride is firm but not overly harsh. I also have C6 seats which help improve the ride quality on my butt.

 

PHAT coilovers and 04 ZO6 sways. I autocross and the car handles great, Have PHADT's set at mid point and the ride is also good, not harsh.

 

I have the coilovers and is probably one of the best mods I have done. I keep mine set at 10 and love the way it feels on the streets. A lot more confidence in the turns and the bumps. I also did all the bushings as well.

 

I just got the Coilovers put on and they are great with the HOTCHKIS sway bars.
I also got the car corner balanced and aligned.
