looks great

one advantage of doing the ctsv calipers is theres no bracket to buy. Just the calipers, rotors, pads, brake line and a couple washers....

to bring this back from the dead....any reviews on how the car stops now?
Also thinking in terms of how hydraulic systems work wouldn't it benefit to upgrade the master cylinder? if there is an upgrade. ive been doing a little searching on upgrading the master and haven't found anything.

The one benefit of doing the Z06 brakes though is you don't have to have the center bore of the 5th gen rotors bored out by a shop, Z06 rotors fit right over the 4th gen hub.

The only issue of this is finding a good deal on Z06 calipers as they are very expensive compared to the CTS-V's, which makes the inconvenience and cost of boring out 5th gen rotors worth it unless you can find a good deal Z06 calipers like he did.
