Default ZR1 Calipers on 99 Z-28
Though i would share a picture of the Rotors that got custom made by Girodisc for a local shop. it is going on a BAD *** Camaro. long list of parts basicly 427 twin turbo street beast



it is getting the 6 piston in front and the 4 piston in the back. once they get on the car i will post more pictures. but thought thie was CRAZY

If you don't mind me asking about how much did that setup cost you? I'm trying to decide what kind if setup to run and not spend an arm and leg for an aftermarket one.

You know anything about the Fikse on the car? Custom ordered for BBK or are they running spaces to fit with the brakes?

they were ordered to fit the brakes. we wanted to keep the look like factory. so Fikse stepped up and made them for us.

18x8 in front.
18x12 in rear. the car is mini tubbed

so i have a set of c6Z after market rims 18x9.5 from OEmwheels LLC. i took one down the Devin last week and seen if they fit the rears. and they do. no spacer needed. tried it on the fronts and bam. just a bit of sanding and maybe a 3/8" spacer and the front fit.

so excited to order these for my TA
