Default Will 2010 brembo camaro calipers work on fbody?

I was wondering if the new brembo calipers and rotors or just one of them would work on a 02 camaro and what modifications?

Not real sure, I just looked at one the other day and liked the calipers. Mainly want the calipers, don't really care how big the rotors are cause I still want to be able to run skinnies every once in awhile.

look at some of the CTS-v threads...Someone on there was saying they thought it might be able to work, but you would have to drill out the holes since they are slightly different than 4th gens. Also if you run the 14in rotor, you need at least 18 in wheels

you are probably going to have to go with a large (at least 13") rotor to make those work...

I really wouldn't want to go over a 13" rotor.

You have a point, I just don't want to get in the range where I can't run skinnies every now and then.

Barely used ones from companies like LPE and Hennessy run between $300-$400 for the pair.

Then you won't be running those Brembo's.. They are sized for a 14" rotor. Sorry man.
