Thanks for the video today from Melbourne Australia 🇦🇺.

Hope you enjoyed it!

@rdehart5509 3 года назад

Another great video! I love when all the parts are the same color. Cant wait to see some driving action.

@BadLuckGarage 3 года назад

I’ve test driven it already and it feels fine. Hopefully this weekend we’ll get it back to the track. 👍🏻

I appreciate how you provide very useful tips throughout the video! Makes me not want to miss a bit! Thank you very much!!

Best third gen Camaro channel on RU-vid I love your content and I've restored my 91 camaro and just put a crate motor in it and I'll be doing suspension upgrades and a procharger hopefully I'll see you at the strip this summer I'm in east Tennessee also

@BadLuckGarage 3 года назад

Knoxville and English Mountain are my main spots. Maybe I’ll see you at one of them!

Im gonna have to get that bracket for my car.

@philbetthauser9547 3 года назад

Those UMI parts look great 👍 and the offset feature is going to let you get a good sized tire on CC , and its going to need it 😎

@BadLuckGarage 3 года назад

Thanks brother. Yea I'm shooting for a 10" wheel with a 6.5" backspace and everyone I've talked to say even with regular tubular control arms you can still run into issues depending on the tire size. I figured if I'm buying them anyway, might as well get the offset just to be sure.

@PNW_Car_Mods 3 года назад

That intro was hilarious. Nice touch. I like where you are going with this Robert. Car is coming along at a good pace. Keeping people interested. I don't have any need for UMI parts but I will tell you I've been spending a fair amount with your friends at LSX Innovations lately. ;) I had no idea they were a half a state away from me.

@BadLuckGarage 3 года назад

Yep, up in Oregon. Been using their stuff since he was just an eBay seller making nothing but swap plates. The owner Justin is a great guy and makes nice parts for VERY reasonable prices! That’s why I’ve always bought his stuff. You know I like my cheap China parts....but when you can get something made in the US from someone who stands behind it for literally a dollar or two more I’ll pay that extra dollar everytime. 👍🏻

@PNW_Car_Mods 3 года назад

@@BadLuckGarage hell yeah! BTW When is the next track outing? I can't wait to see the gains with the cam swap.

@BadLuckGarage 3 года назад

MRBLACK947 sore subject. We loaded up and drove an hour to EMR to run today. Paid $40 to get in then ended up leaving without even unloading the car off the trailer. Planning to take it to Knoxville this coming Friday.

@PNW_Car_Mods 3 года назад

@@BadLuckGarage Uh oh.

@BadLuckGarage 3 года назад

MRBLACK947 Its nothing bad man. There’s just an event going on up there this weekend. It’s being put on by that Block guy out of North Carolina and he wouldn’t let anyone on the track until the main races. So nobody could test and tune. Not the tracks fault or the track owners fault but it fucking sucked because I had planned to get up there early and make some passes and get some data, then leave before the races started. Didn’t work out so I have to wait till next Friday.

@aldo5658 3 года назад

Hey man, I did my lower control arm (non adjustable) . Thing is, rear driver LCA went in easy but rear passenger side is too far forward, so I can't put the bolt in. Any suggestions to help me put the bolt thru the LCA? its forward by 1 cm

@BadLuckGarage 3 года назад

Yes. Move it till it goes in. You watched the video right?🤣

@mattwolff9085 2 года назад

So I need to lower the control arms to the lower holes for less fend to tire issues?

@BadLuckGarage 2 года назад

Lowering the rear of the control arm in relation to the front adds anti-squat while launching yes. But it isn’t going to help you daily driving and hitting potholes if you don’t have the correct backspacing in your wheels and your car is lowered to the weeds.

@desmondturner8621 2 года назад

What shocks do you have on the rear?

@BadLuckGarage 2 года назад

Over a year ago when their video was made they were probably stock since we were just starting on this vehicle. If you want to know more about this specific vehicle, check out the “Chaos Theory Camaro” playlist on this channel.

@stanlucas1932 3 года назад

What was your mindset for starting with the opposite setting of there recommendation for the vehicle usage?

@BadLuckGarage 3 года назад

I like to party. Lol Honestly I just wanna see what kind of difference just installing the control arms and brackets make on my launch in the closest to stock settings.

@stanlucas1932 3 года назад

@@BadLuckGarage Hmmm. OK then, I would have thought maximum traction would have been the go to move but I guess not. Good luck sir

@BadLuckGarage 3 года назад

The highest setting doesn't always give the best traction brother. Ever car is different and ever surface is different as well. Thats why we experiment and make changes.😉 Some people like to start hard and work to soft, I'm going to start soft and work to hard. Ultimately the same result will be achieved either way.

@stanlucas1932 3 года назад

@@BadLuckGarage yep, I've been into drag racing all my life and know what your saying. I just doubt that n/a 5.3 is going to hit those drag slicks to hard that it becomes a problem was all. Good luck sir

@BadLuckGarage 3 года назад

Not running slicks brother, currently running a 26x8.5 radial. Completely different than a slick. Also not NA. Cars currently on nitrous and will be getting a set of turbos over the winter. You should check out the other videos in the Choas Theory playlist and get up to speed if you're interested. It would give you a better understanding of whats going on with this car and why I'm doing things the way I am on this project, as well as all the other project vehicles on the channel.👍
