    Send the coilovers to Penske. They can rebuild them. Those coilovers are $5k new. Penske is a US company making racing parts since the 1960s.

    Yes, for rigidity.That's why most people building race cars out of them go with the base model because of the steel frame instead of aluminum on all the other models, and there are timing tables to make it chop how you like, over speed and under speed coast down then idle speed at what temp you want...And if you put a zr1 on some scales it weights about 3,300

    The axles are different sizes on purpose. GM did that to prevent or minimize wheel hop. Don't change that axle shaft without looking into it... as others have said Z06 is also aluminum frame with a bolt in roof. The roof is a magnesium frame on both and the ZR1 is carbon fiber where the Z06 is SMC (sheet molded composite)

      I've been saying this to them for over 2 years now in comments. They think the weight of the car is the GWR aka the Gross Weight Rating. They think the sticker on the door is the true weight, which it is not. They are confusing curb weight with the gross weight. Gross Weight Rating, which is the rating when full of cargo and passengers. You think after all these years, they would figure it out or read our comments.

    For a RUclips channel, the money being spent to build this car isn't that big of a deal since you'll make that money back as a business. In the real world, paying that much money for an unrepairable car is a huge loss! At the end of the build, you'll more than likely have way more than $70k wrapped up in it and it still won't be a real ZR-1, whereas, there ARE some non wrecked C6 ZR-1s out there that cost under $65k and doesn't need to be repaired.
    At any rate, it's still a neat project and I'm looking forward to seeing it done! To be honest, I think that Cyber Gray Metallic looks great. If it were my choice, I would paint it Jetstream Blue Metallic Tintcoat.
