I have a 94 camaro with kyb agx adj. struts and schocks. 32mm front sway bar. 25mm rear sway bar. front strut bar. rear adj. panhard bar. 255/45 michelin pilot zgt z2 front and 295/35 michilen pilot sport for the rear. I'm having rubbing issuing for the backs, but im about to hopefully finish that project today, but here's my real problem. I have all that done to my car, and my buddy with a 97 maxima with only kyb agx adj.'s all the way around, lowered, and lexani n3000 tires. It feels like to me that his handles better. It def. stays glued to the ground better then i think mine does.

Can anybody PLEASE help me!!!! I thought f-body's were pretty easy to make handle good. Or am i completely barking up the wrong tree here?

it might feel like it sticks to the road better but im sure your camaro would kick his butt on the track do you have the LT1 or 3.4 V6, but i guess the only to find out is to go out and the curvey roads, f-body were made for the track since the first ones came out,there not just the kings of the drag but are the kings of the track. but no your not barking up the wrong tree just stay on the track your on and im sure you wont be disapointed. and did you drive his car or did you ride shot gun, caues you never know how a car drives inless your behind the wheel.

i rape him on curvy roads, i even KILLED an rx8, which are more or less made as an overall good car for curvy and straight. But my car's response is a million times better. Ill throw some sub frame connectors on and see what happens. Thanks bud.

Could be possible that your suspension has not been fine tuned yet?

Link to the exact model of parts you have. Not all parts are the same, so, for example, when you just say "panhard bar" that does not mean anything to me.

Not to sound cocky, but I''ve been researching a crap ton about suspension in all forms for the 4th gens, so maybe I can help with more information guided by you.

RWD and FWD handle a little different. Maybe that what you''re feeling, that makes you think his is better.

My sig sais my panhard bar is a Lakewood Adjustable. I am next buying a set of slp weld on 3 point subframe connectors. After that i''ll begin replacing everything else just to beef up the car for more hp. Also all new bushing... EVERYWHERE!!!
