Just got my new issue of GM High Tech. It has a write up for the new CTS-V big brakes with 6 pistons for a 4th gen. Just FYI for those of you interested.

Finally I got mine installed, it took me a while to gather all the parts that I need cause I didn't buy the parts all the same time. My brakes lines that I both from Flynbye don't have the clips, I just order from jegs and it all work out.

Post up pics and what prices you got your parts for, please. I'm having to do the same thing with piecing it together due to lack of funds.

Would the 2006+ Corvette Z06 Calipers fit my CCW 18 x 10 505A's without a spacer?

Thanks,

Will these fit behind some of OE Wheels 18x10.5 Deep Dish C5 wheels? I'd imagine they would, just looking for a sure thing

That all depends on the offset of the wheels.

Caliper = $350.0 (ebay)
Rotor & Pads = $435.00 including shipping ( R1concepts )
Brake lines = $125.00 front and back from Flynbye
Eibach spacer = $123.50
M12 washers = $1.99
Spray paint = $7.00

You could go cheaper if you will buy your rotor and pads at GMpartsdirect. I got mine from R1concepts. Pictures coming soon.

Yeah, that looks like the spec on the wheels. Will this clear the CTS-V brakes up front? I can't find a spec of what is needed to clear.

They say +41mm offset or less will clear without spacers. It does depend on the spoke design though and many say cause of the DD design that it makes it even harder to fit the calipers. Until someone tries it with those wheels we will never know what is needed to make them fit.

Don't think that will clear at all. Offset is way off for caliper clearance. You would definitely need wheel spacers.

Geez $450 a piece for the calipers. you can go on ebay and get the '10 Camaro SS brakes for under $500.

Anyone know the differences between the CTS-V set-up and Z06 set-up from the rotor face to the outside of the caliper?

Thats retail, you can get them for $318 on gmpd, which isn't much more than the 4-piston cts-v. Also I believe the '10 Camaro ss is the 4piston brembo as well, not the 6-piston.

Can anyone confirm the loaded caliper part #'s? Are these the CTV-V brembo calipers?
