Chassis Talk

Re: Chassis Talk
The front in the CZ6 drawing *IS* a strut type front suspension. Look at CZ6 vs. the GTO front suspension and it's a match except the rack was moved in front of the wheel centerline, allowing a rear sump oil pan. In the CZ6 drawing you can clearly see a red circle for the strut, a green lateral locating link, a purple diagonal longitudinal link and an orange sway bar.
I wonder if it would be alright to post a version of this i just made with a squre from teh cz6 drawing pasted on for a side by side front suspension comparison? If people were actually looking at this i think they'd stop guessing.

Re: Chassis Talk
i just looked Charlie. i see some similarities in the front end as far as control arm placement and stabilizer bar placement. the steering rack is in front on the CZ6. the rear though looks very different. are there any pics of the Holden Zeta?

Could you believe the CZ6 looks like a longer wheelbase, about the same overall length?

There was a whole post on this a long while back, someone posted a link to the poster I'm talking about, and other people said that GM considered the LS1 4th the 5th generation of Camaro.
There are no corrections to be made to the name of the forum, IMO, it's an opinion thing. We can consider the 6th the 5th all we want, GM people thinking otherwise doesn't make any difference. I believe that that is why(If I'm right, and if what I've read is right) there haven't been any corrections already made.

Re: Chassis Talk
Poster? lol, no. POSTER. Like, those big paper picture things you hang on your wall? Made by GM, sold at the GM store. In the thread about that POSTER(the one about five generations of Camaro), other people mentioned the fact that GM considered the LS1 the 5th gen.
Diognes, Why would GM make a nice, neat CAD drawing for the concept's chassis? It's pointless because concepts are just made to show off the LOOK of a car.

Re: Chassis Talk
