Register to get Introductory Pricing on Pedders eXtreme Xa Coil over

DMS

Pedders is probably going to have an introductory special price on our eXtreme Xa coil over sets. Initial prices will be outstanding. Why are we doing i? We already know this coil over set is off the charts. We have been beta testing a set for a month or so. Off the carts handling, with comfort. We will be offering 3 different coil sets, depending on your goals for driving. From road racing and auto crossing, to aggressive street play and running the canyons! These coil overs are waaaaayyyyyyyy beyond anything on the market. They are a Monotube design, with 30 way detent adjustability, and you will be able to adjust ride height and not change your spring ratings! This is a reallllly big deal for balance.

We will dominate the Camaro market way beyond what we dominate the G8 and GTO markets. So we will most likely offer an introductory pricing for a limited amount of Camaros. For this price, we will only expect a true and accurate posting of your handling with these units. YOU MUST POST YOUR REVIEWS AND BE HONEST. How do we know they will be off the charts? We have already done the beta testing on a Track II G8 running near 500 rear horsepower on Pete's G8. There is little difference between the Camaro and the G8. Those components that are different, we already know about them.

So if you are interested, when the pricing is announced, they will be posted first on this thread. So make a post on this thread so you will get notification with the coil over orders and pricing will take place. I do not think we will be able to handle all orders and am, to be really honest, not sure how many we will have available for the Camaro. So make a post and be prepared to respond ASAP.

If any of you are in the SF Bay area, I will make a great offer to you on doing a eXtreme TrackII system. We will use your Camaro as our verification Camaro. This literally will be the cheapest eXtreme TrackII in the country. So make your posts so we know who you are.

thanks to all. We are really excited to blow the doors off of all competition, and make you smile!!

thanks

I simply cannot wait until the new Camaro is on the lots so people can see things like this and get excited. This is a very cool system, I was talking to the Pedders USA owner at SEMA and he was telling me how awesome it is and how he can't wait to get it to you new Camaro owners.

You should contact Pete. He is down in the Detroit area all the time. Diving his G8 will be a rear kick! You will be able to feel how the Camaro will drive.

I already took a spin in it last October when he was at my event. Talk about addictive boost! I don't think he had the new stuff on it at the time, I'll see if I can give him a buzz.

It is different now with the eXtremeXA coil overs. It is set up more aggressive with better comfort if you can believe it!

Jason,

Those were the OLD eXtremes and they were really good. The new eXtreme Xa coilovers are ridiculously good. I currently have the only functional set of ZETA Xa Coilovers. The rest were destroyed in the validation process. We started on the eXtreme Xa product line a little more than two years ago. It has been a long road to bring these to market. The clevis plates are steel for strength and 100% OE clip compatible. The OE ABS and brake line clips fit into place just like on an OE component. at setting #8 we are at Pedders GSR damping. Lower can be softer than OE at Zero. At 30 we are in R compound track tight. We wanted to make certain that the damping adjustment was bullet proof. The biggest issue with adjustable damping is that it can be frustrating to the end user to get them to the exact same settings. Our Xa line has 30 positive click adjustments. They are bullet proof to set -- if you can count to 30.

Turn them down to full soft and count the number of clicks up. Hmmm was that click 14 or 15? No worries mate -- zero it down and count again. It takes all of maybe 30 seconds a coilover?

Ride height change is accomplished by screwing the entire tube into the lower mounting. My G8 has been dropped from 660mm all around to 615 front and 585mm rear. With damping set at 8, the lowered ride is a comfortable as OE. set to 14 or 15 it would drive very close to your experience with our old eXtremes. With the damping set to 21 front and 19 rear, the ZETA G8 feels like a taut string. It is tight -- very tight -- and controlled beyond belief. set to 30 it would be ready for R compound tires and a race track.

Our R & D people insist you can feel the difference between each click. Starting from baseline at zero and moving up one click I cannot feel the difference. I can absolutely feel the difference with two clicks between zero and 15. At 15 or higher I can feel the difference between each click.

When do you get your 2010?

Every other forums and vehicle we support is covered by the December Dollar Days SALE so why not the Camaro that isn't released???? We debated about this for a while and decided to go ahead and roll it out -- the new Pedders eXtreme Xa Coilovers for the 5th Gen 2010 Camaro. Our Camaro Xa coilovers will be available in April compared to the other vehicles phasing in as early as the end of this month. So for the real hard core I have to be first to have these on my Camaro....

These are state-of-the-art 46mm high pressure monotube that adjust for height by screwing the tube into the clevis / lower mount. This method of height adjustment does not alter the spring pre-load. Adjustable damping can be a real problem when the method of adjustment is not precise. Pedders Xa Coilover damping has 30 positive click adjustments. This is fixed ratio bound and rebound with Pedders GSR valving between positions 8 and 12. You have the ability to soften the damping to Comfort Gas or even OE or raise it to R compound firm. With the expanded damping range built in Pedders will offer a range of coils: Street, Sport and Race. The Pre-Order units will be fitted with Sport Coils. Our Xa line is for the enthusiast and will sit approximately 15mm lower in front at maximum high and 20mm lower in the rear adjusted to maximum height. Pedders will be expanding our Xa range to include the Chrysler LX range as well as Asian and German models that are not listed. New fitments will be posted as they become available.

:drool:

Pete, these look better than how you described them to me. I have a buddy with a G8, and he says that the G8 guys are extremely happy with Pedders stuff and it doesn't end with those guys.

Is the total height adjustment determined yet? Like...how much of a drop is possible total?

i just spoke to Pete........and im in. just one question maybe someone can answer. if the camaro does catch a snag in production, and i already gave my down payment on the kit, im assuming i get a refund? im sure nothing will happen but i just thought of that. he got me so psyched about getting my car and putting this kit on it!

does anyone know if this kit will have a bad camber after being installed. i know on the 4th gen after lowering there wasnt an issue. but will there be an issue with the 5th gen? im just wondering if there is going to be any more involved in making this road ready. im planning on having mine installed by his certified installers but i was just curious.

The beta Camaro Pedders Xa coil overs are in the states. We are, however, going to do the test fit and testing in Michigan, and not here.

However, I am the technical guy for Pedders, and I am the one that writes the manuals, does the training, and answers the majority of the technical questions. I will not be at the beta testing. Pete will do this. However, I will need a Camaro to do photos for training manuals, and I want to do it ASAP. This means yours will be one of the first in the country, and i will do the install personally. I will, however, require the installation of, at a minimum the Street1 package as well. This will include our special radius rod, diff insert, and the rear cradle bushings. We will be offering a special intro price, so I cannot tell you what the special price will be yet including installation and 4 wheel alignment.

So keep this offer in mind. You will have to bring your Camaro to Livermore, where I am at.

Our success with the Xa's for the G8 (ZETA PLATFORM) is off the charts. We now have in our possession, a set for the Camaro. We need a beta test car in the Great Lakes Area ASAP. You will get a great price for them. FREE!.

Now we have the G8 dialed in, and expect these Xa's to be at or very near perfection. So if you are interested, contact us ASAP. I will be flying out to work with Pete this Friday on a multitude of projects. Would love to be part of this beta testing with Pete. But we need one ASAP!!

Even thought this is a beta test, it is the most advanced beta test fit, it is the most advanced one that we have ever done. The reason is 2 fold: we have serious experience with Zeta platfroms thru the G8, not only here, but in Austraila. With few exceptions, thd Camaro is just like the G8, So we already based the Camaro data on slightly modified G8 data. The mods we have done, are propriatory. It is interesting that the show Camaros that are all over, are having suspension problems with non OEM suspension form other companies. Guess who they are calling to fix it!

Both Pete's and my schedule has become exptremely complicated and busy the next 6 to 8 weeks. There are Camaros that are sold in the New Haven, MI area, but we have to wait for their delivery. So our travel now will be limited.

So there are 2 locations we will do this test: Witt Buick in Muskegan, MI, and for next week only (April 27th thru the 30th), in the Greenwood, In,( Indy area in Indiana) Pete and zI will be there, Apparantly the state troopers and policve think too many drivers think they are on the Indy Speedway. We will be doing a Pedde3rs eXtreme Track kit on a Charger police interceptor car for them to test. So we will take a car that has a skid pad rating of around ,86g's and make it over 1.0g's,

So if you have interest, contact me ASAP. The value of the package, with the setup and adjustments we will be doing, is somewhere in the $2800 range, and your price is $0!,
