Default 'Vette Brakes

I've got 17" wheels on my TA. Can I convert the small TA brakes to the larger 'vette hardware. If so, what's involved. Thanks.

Yes. Do the LG GStop C5 conversion. They are a direct bolt on so you dont have to cut the spindle.

Get the LG brackets, get two Brembo replacement rotors for a 97-04 Vette, re-use your stock calipers and bolt it all up.

Ive been wanting to do this for a while, it all comes to around 500 after shipping and tax.

250 for the bracket kit. 99 per rotor at Tirerack.com
