I have too much free time sometimes. Meant to make a vid of the last time it was on the dyno... so here it is.
Stick around to the end to see what the Dech does to Camaro owners.

Didn't you mean to post this vid Zip????

Ol' Dech is back out from storage. Was nice driving it home from Port Perry this afternoon. Excited to upgrade it some more and take it to the track this year.
Goal of a 1.20.xxx this year at TMP! Only need to find 3seconds LOL
Up first on the mods list is to do the diff & install the new rad.
June 9th can't come soon enough

Well, today was the day that I test fitted my new track wheels. Was pretty nervous over the winter whether or not they would fit... but thankfully they do!

I've learned quite a bit going through this roller coaster ride of trying to get a wheel to fit... but finally I got to the end.
Anyways, these are Fast FC04 wheels.
Specs:
18x9 +30
Obviously I can't put the car down to see what it would look like on the ground... but there is very little poke while the car is jacked up. I am running about 3degrees of negative camber... so the wheel should tuck into the fender pretty well.
Also to note. This is with NO SPACER. It clears the ATS brembo brakes and has lots of room on the strut/coilover.
Going to get my AR1's mounted to them and get them on the car to see how they look.
Really happy with how they look. Hope I can feel the difference!
