J Posted July 2, 2007 Report Posted July 2, 2007 i went with brake warehouse stuff and it is all good for the past 4 years Quote
slick Posted July 2, 2007 Report Posted July 2, 2007 Best- Upgrade to Baer or comparable calipers. Quote
z34_nut Posted July 2, 2007 Author Report Posted July 2, 2007 Well, I would want to upgrade to bear... but I don't want to dump the money into this car just yet. I'm just looking for good pads and rotors so I can continue to drive the car until its tear down time. Quote
BXX Posted July 2, 2007 Report Posted July 2, 2007 Just get the cheapo crap for now and plan an upgrade later... W-body brakes are undersized as it is, so they are gonna get chewed up pretty bad either way *When I get a second job soon, a 13 to 13.5" upgrade will be in the works.. I had to put it on hold since I got a newer car and have a car payment... Quote
Andrew Posted July 2, 2007 Report Posted July 2, 2007 i vote for Summit Extreme Performance, cross drilled and slotted. $50 a piece. http://store.summitracing.com/egnsearch.asp?N=700+4294922533+4294859634+4294908153+4294924746+4294908148+115+400304 then couple with Hawk ceramic pads. $60 Quote
19Cutlass94 Posted July 3, 2007 Report Posted July 3, 2007 Im running napa AE pads ( semi-metallic ) and SP slotted rotors... works amazing! Quote

Personally I want cross drilled and slotted for the bling factor.. but whats the best type? I would say yeah, go big with the brakes, it is a sharp looking car, you can't have shitty brakes, second off...when the hell did you get a Corvette Z06? You had a Camaro....now you have a Z06? Wanna help me fix my Lumina haha jk. Quote
z34_nut Posted July 3, 2007 Author Report Posted July 3, 2007 I'm not upgrading the brakes yet people! Lol.. I'm just replacing the rotors and pads because they are worn out. I think this car had powerstop on them before... I'm gonna look into them. As far as the Z06 goes: http://www.w-body.com/forum/index.php/topic,61560.0.html Quote
