Hey guys, im new to these forums, and just started thinking about improving my 2002 SS camaro. Sorry if i sound like a newbie but i really want to improve the handling on the camaro, and am wondering whats the best suspension kit to put on it? (springs and shocks wise)? and where i can find them? thanks alot for all the help fellas.

Check out Hotchkis. I have the TVS package with bilstein shocks for my 67 Vert and love it. They have upgrades for Camaros all the way up to the 2002. http://www.hotchkis.net/c-588-1998-2002.aspx

I'd love ta get in on this, but sorry, I'm a 1st Gen. guy is all.

I will keep reading right along tho..

Good luck,

Thanks for the input, i've heard that the strano systems are really good, anyone have these on theirs? Btw i'd be a 1st gen guy myself if i could ever find/afford one haha.

For a 4th gen, you'll have better luck over here:

Good Timing, were actually doins a project car right now. It is a 2000 WS6 Trans Am convertible we bought new. The car has been totally stock, but just yesterday I added the new 19" Forgeline wheels. Weds were doing all the Hotchkis stuff, springs, trailing arms, strut brace, etc. So we will be able to give some real feedback and are doing pictures.

Here is a pic of the car with the new wheels, needs to be lowered badly!

Now that is a sweet sweet sweeeeeetttttttttt lookin trams. its probably the sexiest thing i've seen on 4 wheels. well done my friend. keep me updated how u like the hotchkis suspension parts. im very very curious

The SS suspension is way better than the Z/28 stuff!
The lower trailing arm bushings are very weak. Global west and Hotchkis have upgrades.
There are 1LE packages available from SLP. Wheel to Wheel developed the 1LE parts for road racing.
