I do remember seeing, in either an old AutoWeek or Road&Track, an artcile
(oops - article) about an engineer working on active-type suspensions who had
built a late-model Camaro as a test bed.  This car was, as I recall, suspended
on hydraulic cylinders cross-linked RF-LR/LF-RR.

Maybe not exactly the same, but was this system a relative of the wet Mini 
suspension?  Anybody recall?
