Baer Brake Pads? Bought a 97 firebird with a Baer brakes track system on it and was wondering what kind of pads I would need to buy for it. Do these system use C5 vette calipers? Thanks.

So basically Baer just took calipers from a Mustang Cobra, put their logo into them, and sold them in a kit for a lot of money.
Those are essentially PBR calipers then, which are the same brand that 98-02 cars came with. So I don't see how those calipers would offer any advantage over an LS1 brake swap.
The 2 piece rotors are nice though.
