Line lock on the Trans Am comes straight out of the master cylinder and has no affect on the ABS. Not sure if that helps lol.

Will see if I have a photo somewhere.

Well still been working a lot so not much more than stripped the wiring loom done on the car.

However i have tret myself to some new rims, I blame you lot for them though, i was happy with my 18"s till you told me i needed 19"s with the front extended arches!
I know they are quite popular rims but i couldnt find any others that matched exactly what i wanted:

19"
5 spoke
Spokes right to the rim
No lip
Concave faced.
Staggered fitment

so these are them:

The fronts are 8.5 wide so shouldnt be too much of a problem.

the rears are 10" wide though so will need to make them fit.
"Stance" and stretched tyres are not an option i like so extended arches it is.

Its about 3cm i need to pull them out mate, overfenders are probaly best, though will try rolling them as far as i can so i dont have to cut them

I had to make my own wider arches took a while to get right with I'd of just brought some wide arches I say do that the £100 ones will give it a proper aggressive look them if you wanna go for that look


Little write up on the evolution of my car - Sparkystav - 22-10-2019

yeah mate, thats the plan, stretch the standard ones or cut them if i have 2.

then i have a couple of sets of arches here, just need to see which fit best
