Opinions on these brake and suspens- MODS
Hey Guys
Just wantes to get your opinions on these MODS:
I have an 06 with standard non Z51.
I was thinking of getting the PFADT Sway bars. Some reviews said that's all you'll need that a shock upgrade was not needed.
I'm also trying to decide between the Z06 brake kit or just getting a Wilwood front only. Still deciding on Fiske or Z07 style wheels.

What are your plans for the car? Will you track the car, run autocross (in what class), or drag race? Each has different requirements. As you are asking about swaybars and brakes (and shocks) you must be thinking of HPDE track or autox events. I went with the C6 Z06 swaybars and shocks on my base C6 as the price is really right but for autox you need to be aware of the rules for the class you intend to run.
With more information you'll get better advice from many on the CF. If you don't plan to run the car then save your money and buy wax.

FWIW, My C6 has Z06 brakes, Z51 sways and F55. Very, very satisfied with the car. Handles great, not that expensive. Street driven almost daily. Corners flat and fast. I've seen 1.06g on the Hud.

Yeah, I'm not going to track the car. This is simply for my own satifation of street driving. I don't want the caar to ride horribly and handle great. I want to have the happy medium. Right now, it's a bit sloppy in the turns with the base stuff.
