Default bigger brake ritors

I have a 2000 TransAm in which i have the c6wheels and was looking to put bigger front and rear brake rotors is it possible to use the corvette brake rotors and not have to change anything else or am i going to need new callipers and probably more.

Plenty of info using the search feature of this forum.

Reader's Digest version: In order to use C5/C6 rotors you will have to buy C5/C6 calipers AND a conversion bracket to install a system (rotors, calipers, pads).

From what I've read, you dont need Corvette Calipers, just rotors and an adapter bracket (maybe new lines too).

Anyway, normally a search would get you plenty...but its not working too well right now.
Try the following phrases in Google...
(without the quotes)
"LS1Tech Corvette brake"
"LS1Tech Corvette rotor"
"LS1Tech Z06 brake"
"LS1Tech Z06 rotor"
Those phrases will make google search LS1tech before searching elsewhere.
