BXX Posted January 10, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 10, 2012 Ok thanks Andrei! So if F-body brakes will work, then aftermarket F-body setups will work as well, correct? What size is the F-body rotor? 12.7"? I have 19" wheels I need to try to fill without breaking the bank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pwmin Posted January 15, 2012 Report Share Posted January 15, 2012 They're right around 12". I'm getting a setup really soon, so I'll be able to measure. The GXP brakes are 12.7, so that would actually be the best option to me, but they're more expensive, obviously, and require 18" wheels, which you might have on that car...can't remember. The rears are 12". Also, ZZP makes a 13" kit for the fronts, but they're not aluminum calipers, which is another reason the GXP setup is probably better. I'm not saying you have to buy ZZP, just showing some examples of what you can do.

timg Posted February 15, 2012 Report Share Posted February 15, 2012 Very cool. I missed that you were swapping to a gen 2 front suspension the first few times I saw this post. I've always wondered about that and the new HiPerStrut on the Buicks and Saabs. Tim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
