Convert Your Brakes To Z06 Brakes


04CHASE

Recommended Posts

i have both rear 4 piston z06 brake calipers for sale , they are brand new in the box , but the box has been opened just to make sure i got the right parts. i also have a set of hawk ceramic brake pads to go with them

 

no i know your wondering how do i make them work on the trucks?

 

well there are some brackets being made that will allow these to bolt up to your truck. i have info on that so pm me if your interested since i cant post non sponser links.

 

you will need to use powerslot 14" rotors for this conversion .which can be had for a very reasonable price.

i will im working on making the rear baer work with the 6 piston front z06 calipers i think i can make it happen .

 

i should have more info on this next week.

 

you can make it work but it may be hard up front with baer rotors, (clearence issues) i was going to do the cts-v calipers 2 years ago but to make it work you need big rotors like the wilwoods. i bought the calipers for measurements and returned them because i didnt want to pay the money for the wilwoods.

 

my buddy made the custom brackets for an 2005 GTO to use 6 piston z06 brakes upfront & rear with use of the z06 rotors as well. I'll post some pics. they look sick on it with his ccw wheels.

its honestly pretty possible the reason the 4 piston didnt work was the rear baer rotors are alot thicker than the powerslots and they wouldnt fit in between the calipers , but the front 6 piston z 06 calipers use a larger rotor , so the baer rear rotor fits perfect, i should have the brackets here next week so ill be posting info on the swap.

there is a company that makes the conversion for the Z06 caliper for all the GTOs
