Turn Your Third-Gen Camaro or Firebird into a Handling Machine with QA1 Suspension Components and Kits

As good as your third-gen Camaro or Firebird is, it can benefit from a well-sorted suspension package from QA1. Their Proma Star Coilovers, Suspension Kits, and other components will improve your F-body’s performance around the curves and provide more control on the dragstrip.

Proma Star Adjustable Front Coilover Systems
QA1 Proma Star Adjustable Front Coilover Systems have adjustable valving that lets you dial in your desired level of performance. The single-adjustable versions have 18-position valving that controls compression and rebound simultaneously. The double-adjustable shocks let you set compression and rebound individually with 324 possible valving settings.

The Proma Star struts have an inverted cartridge design with a large diameter shaft to resist side loading, ensuring smoother and more consistent performance during hard cornering and braking.

Other features include:
• Use the factory mounting locations, no toe link relocation kit required
• Ride height-adjustable from zero to two inches
• Adjustable caster-camber plates for front struts
• Lightweight aluminum bodies reduce unsprung weight
• Dyno-tuned coil spring rates

Pro-Coil Adjustable Rear Coilover Conversion Kits
QA1’s Pro-Coil Rear Coilover Conversion Kits come with single- or double-adjustable shocks to fine-tune your suspension. The shocks have fully threaded aluminum bodies that provide an inch and a half of ride height adjustment to get the perfect stance. Pro-Coil Rear Coilover Conversion Kits are an easy bolt-on and come with the necessary brackets and hardware.

Wonder Bar Steering Brace
The Wonder Bar Steering Brace stiffens the front subframe, especially in the steering box area. The bar bolts above the front sway bar and ties the subframe rails together. The result is sharper steering response, improved cornering, and overall performance gains.

Adjustable Torque Arm
The QA1 Adjustable Torque Arm is a must-have upgrade for your F-Body. The tubular steel arm has a polyurethan front bushing to reduce chassis flex and wheel-hop under acceleration. X-Series chromoly rod ends and an aluminum linkage adjuster make it easy to adjust pinion angle. The QA1 Adjustable Torque Arm fits 1984-92 Camaro and Firebird with the factory 10-bolt rear axle.

Trailing Arm Relocation Brackets
The QA1 Trailing Arm Relocation Brackets modify the mounting point of the rear lower trailing arms. This corrects the trailing arm angle and raises the instant center of the vehicle. That means more forward bite and less rear squat during hard acceleration. The brackets can be used with stock or QA1 lower trailing arms and fit the stock 10-bolt rear axle housing. Welding is required.

If you want to do your F-Body’s suspension all at once, Summit Racing carries QA1 Handling Kits and Drag Racing Suspension Kits. Depending on the level of kit you choose, you’ll get components like Pro Coil single- or double-adjustable coilovers, Wonder Bar brace, adjustable rear trailing arms and torque arm, subframe connectors, and even a lightweight front K-member.
