CTS-V brakes on a F-body.
So I go to the local caddy dealer and they have a CTS-V in. So i go check it out, and HOLY CRAP, its has the most awesome brakes i've ever seen.
Does anybody know if you can convert the 6 lug cts brakes to fit a f-body, i'm sure you would have to change the spindles and all, but I think it would be worth it if you could find some for a good price.

Say if I could get the front brakes off of one for 1000 dollars, are their any comparable brakes for the same price. After thinking about it I don't think I can convert the rear axles to 6 lug.

Aren't the Z06 brakes less than that. I know you can get some stock vette ones for less than that. The V's are definatly better than the vettes, but the Z06's are bad-***, but probably a little worse. I think the V's for 1000 is a good deal, especially considering the price of a brembos new for our cars (like 2400 for four wheels)
