SSmoothSilSS Posted September 11, 2011 Report Share Posted September 11, 2011 Ok, I searched, alot of guys advertising are not adding the part numbers, I'm not sure that every year is the same, blah blah blah. Anyway I'm looking in piece by piece buy for the front upgrade Z06 caliper set up, who has the best price on calipers and rotors, the Baer rotors and not advertised with the part numbers also. Thanks for the help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sleepingcrna Posted September 12, 2011 Report Share Posted September 12, 2011 When you buy, get the number from the eBay guy. Call him and ask him if he'll donut for 1100 and you'll paypal on the spot. He may bite. If not, ask him to throw in the caliper pad pins/bolts at least. Doesn't hurt to ask.

sleepingcrna Posted September 12, 2011 Report Share Posted September 12, 2011 Ill try to get all of the parts/numbers/sources for my vette brake kit in a few days and post up some pics on Rudys how to thread. Right now I'm up to my elbows in assholes so it'll prob be later in the week.

stg313 Posted September 19, 2011 Report Share Posted September 19, 2011 If you actually call Baer the guy that answers the phone will be able to give you a discount on the Eradispeed rotors if you order all 4 at once......... It worked for me twice back when I had my SSS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ss silverado24 Posted September 28, 2011 Report Share Posted September 28, 2011 Hello guys!! Been awhile since I last posted which I could give you all a bunch of excuses but I will not. The thing is now I am back & ready to start on some mods for 03 SS. The first mod I want to start on is this Z06 brake upgrade. I have been reading this post the last couple of days & the "how to" post also. So, questions I have, I want to to use the Corvette Grand Sport Calipers. Does this change anything & how could I get the part numbers for those? For the rotors, I guess I need to talk to supersub, but I also noticed on baer, there are a couple different eradispeed rotors, plus 1 & plus 2. Which ones are the ones I need & also can I go with 15" rotors in the rear or is 14" the max? The bracketts I also know I need to talk to rudy about getting. Since I am a newbie, I am not sure if I can PM anyone. Brake lines, which ones are you guys upgrading to & I would like to know which factory brake pads I should use? A lot of guys I see have the Hawk, but I would like to stick with the factory pads at first so if any one has the part numbers for those also. Like I said, I am glad to be back & start getting your guys opinion. Any help you guys could give would be much appreciated with out bending over backwards. Shoot me a PM. Thanks Again Chad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rudy91040 Posted September 30, 2011 Report Share Posted September 30, 2011 Using the Grand Sport calipers shouldn't be a problem. According to this website they are the same just different colors. A Google search came up with a few Corvette forum guys asking the same question and every time everyone agreed that they are the same. While I don't have the part numbers for the Grand Sport calipers, they shouldn't be too hard to find. If you have a problem finding them let me know. For the rear rotors 14" is the max you can use with my brackets and I would advise not going any bigger regardless. By using a larger rotor or caliper with more pistons in the rear it may throw the bias way off. You then have to install an aftermarket proportioning valve and reduce the rear brake bias and cancel out any benefit you received by using a larger rotor or more piston calipers. There are others that may have a different opinion as to the effect of a larger rear rotor or more piston caliper but that is a whole other discussion. For the rotors, The Eradispeed plus 1 or plus 2 will both work for the front. They are the same size, 15", but the plus 1 is a one-piece rotor while the plus 2 rotor is a two-piece rotor. Be forewarned, the plus 2 rotors are about twice the price of plus 1 rotors. For the brake lines, a lot of guys are running the Earls lines, but last I heard, Earls stopped making them. Goodridge is supposed to be really good. Russell makes them as well and I know a few guys run those. I don't remember who made them, but someone had a kit that came with zinc coated steel washers I believe. Well the washers corroded or rusted or something and suddenly gave out one day. That is also part of the reason I say to use the GM Z06 crush washers. For the factory pads, I don't really know anything about them. Once again, the part number shouldn't be too hard to find, but if you have trouble, let me know. I sent you a pm on pricing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
