Corvette C5/C6

 The FDF C5/C6 steering rack brace is designed to prevent the right side mount of the rack from breaking. Drifting puts alot of force on the steering rack that it was not intended to take, and because of this, the weak, factory mount will break off over time. 

The FDF brace is made from billet 6061 Aluminum

If your rack mount is already broken, this brace can be used as a new mount as-well.

All hardware required will be included 

Installation and design video of the product can be seen below

Our FLCA for C5/C6/C7 are a low profile, high clearance design that up to for 70 degrees of wheel lock. They bolt to factory knuckles or FDF mega mantis knuckles. The arms feature on car adjustment for both camber and caster, meaning you do not need to disconnect the lower control arm to align the car. 

The arms feature an OEM style mounting point for any Coilover to fasten to, with 3-position, motion ratio adjustment, each adjustment adding 8% increase or decrease in stiffness to fine-tune your suspension.  This product is not intended for factory leaf springs/shocks. 

The arms are constructed from high-strength alloy steel, and use spherical bearings with locking collars to keep everything tight while in use. Adjusting the arms to your desired alignment specs is easy with the on-car adjustablility 

The arms include all of the required hardware to bolt on and go.

Please allow 2-3 weeks of fabrication before the item is sent.

Front brake lines are all extended 3" longer than OEM

Each HEL Performance brake line kit is assembled in-house from the finest quality stainless steel fittings swaged directly to hard drawn tensile stainless steel braided hose. The kit includes brake lines for the front and rear of the car. 

With our extensive automotive listings the complete kit will be manufactured to exact specifications, guaranteeing the look, the quality and the performance you demand.

HEL Brake line kits eliminate that 'spongy' feeling often found with rubber hoses under extreme braking conditions - the time when performance is needed the most. By replacing the original rubber hoses with our complete system you will remove this sponginess and your braking will deliver new levels of precision.

Don't risk using inferior brake lines when you can trust us to improve braking reliability and performance - We use stainless steel in our lines and our fittings. Most competitors use zinc plated fittings which are at risk from corrosion.

The Corvette is a remarkable drift chassis, however, it may have certain limitations in comparison to other platforms due to the positioning of its front upper control arms within the front wheel. The FDF Arms are specifically designed to address this issue by utilizing high-strength alloy steel and a modified mounting point, resulting in the maximum clearance on both OEM and aftermarket drift knuckles. In contrast to the OEM upper control arm, the FDF arm offers an additional 10 degrees of clearance, significantly enhancing the vehicle's angle potential. Moreover, the replacement of factory rubber bushings with chromoly rod ends further enhances the handling characteristics of the vehicle.

The upper control arms are length adjustable using the rod end adjustment range. The range is limited due to the mounting angle, so to further increase the control arms lengths, you can add upper control arm shims. 

 *NOTE, if you are using these for a none drift application, they will not give you more negative camber than the OEM control arms. they are the same length as OEM at there shortest position. 

Corvette C5/C6 Rear Upper Arms, features 250ksi yield strength alloy steel, tig welded and powder coated to prevent corrosion and provide a durable finish. Our exclusive chromoly locking bungs allow for easy adjustment and secure locking to prevent from coming loose under hard driving. 

Custom 3 piece Rod Ends feature a Teflon liner to provide quiet operation, low friction, smooth articulation, and eliminates bushing deflection under load. The PTFE liner is chemically bonded to the inner diameter of the race. 

 Sold as a pair.

CENTER CONSOLE CUT TEMPLATE

C5/C6 rear toe arm replacement/upgrade is a direct OEM replacement, giving you easy adjustment, and serviceability. 

the arms are constructed from a 7075 aluminum body with a center machined hex, Chromoly rod ends, 4140 Chromoly stud that fastens to the knuckle and the toe arm can be removed in just a couple of minutes, vs the OEM toe arm which takes quite a bit of time due to its hard to reach the location on the subframe. It is a necessary upgrade for any drift corvette, the main reason being the OEM inner tierods can not be purchased new anymore. 

NOTE*

The body of the arm is the main replacement part that you might want to have on hand, they are an 11.5" tierod body that can be purchased on our site. the same tierod body that a lot of our angle kits use, and would also be easy to source at track events with other FDF kit users. 

In a race car you can do all of the modifications you want for the car to go faster and handle better, but if your body is sliding around then it won't be very enjoyable. 

FDF Race shop seat mounts are designed with easy adjustment and seating position in mind. using any side mount seat, you will be able to drop the seat to the floor and pitch the seat up to 15 degrees back. move the seat forward and back over 8" and find the perfect location for any size driver. 

Machined from 6061-T6 bases Anodized black, and formed 3/16 steel side mounts the weight/functionality and strength were top priority. 

The mounts will include everything needed for 1 seat to be mounted in either the drivers side or the passenger side. 

DISCLAIMER* - Corvettes have a hard time fitting wider seats, please measure the base of your seat to choose the options. 

The FDF C5/C6 conversion is a transfer drill plate that is easily bolted to the factory wheel bearing and provides transfer holes for a 14mm drill bit. This is the size required to press in new ARP wheel studs. It is recommended that a shop do this and at a minimum, use a drill press to ensure that the holes are perpendicular to the bearings mounting face. 

The studs that work well for this install are ARP-100-7717 and can be purchased on summit racing

The plate can come with a 14mm drill bit if selected 

Please allow 2-3 weeks before shipping

The FDF C6 corvette fire wall block off plates include all pieces required to cover the holes passing through to the engine bay.  Pre Drilled holes are provided for easy marking and drilling, the prefered method of installation is using rivets or panel bond. Rivets are not included. These are an FD legal product.

The FDF Lockout kit is the perfect solution for maintaining your alignment under hard driving.

Aluminum solid bushings to replace the rubber bushing on C5/C6 BC-racing coil overs

BR Series - The BC Racing BR Series offers the most affordable entry into coilover suspension without sacrificing performance, comfort, build quality, vehicle height, or handling. This is done by extensively testing each vehicle then refining the coilover characteristics as many times as needed to ensure the most well-balanced and affordable aftermarket suspension conceivable.

ER Series - The BC Racing ER Series Coilover System is the next evolution in your suspension tuning and vehicle setup needs. The ER Series offers 30-clicks of independently adjustable compression and rebound with remote reservoirs to increase oil capacity and help with faster heat dissipation.

Drift Spec Rate  - per chassis we have determined the perfect drift specification, which typically involves a different spring rate and in some cases, different valving. Choosing this option will guarantee 

DRIFT SPEC IS BUILT TO ORDER 8-10 WEEKS

Standard Spec Rate - This option is what BC has determined to be the best natural choice for improved handling and performance all around. 

Swift Spring- Swift springs are manufactured using superior engineering and have moved quickly through the ranks of motorsports and some of the world's most reputable races. Swift springs are the lightest in weight, strongest in durability, and highest in linearity of any spring on the market.

Rear Coilover option -  Many vehicles run a divorced style spring and shock setup in the rear. For example an E36/46 or a 350Z. Using this option you can select if you want to run your setup with the OEM divorced design or if you want to convert your car to a true rear combined coilover setup
