NipRing Posted September 8, 2015 Report Share Posted September 8, 2015 (edited) I've got a friend who owns a machine shop. He made some brackets for himself to allow his stock vette calipers to use larger rotors. He said he can do the same for me (us?) but he needs a knuckle, caliper, and wheel bearing for a mock-up.

Downeast Johnny Posted September 24, 2015 Report Share Posted September 24, 2015 That is pretty cool. We need to find him a wreck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wwd_mbtch Posted September 25, 2015 Report Share Posted September 25, 2015 Rudy has the Z06 brackets if that is what you want. Not sure if you are shooting for something different. Just got a set, very good quality. Look at Z06 brake thread in how to section. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Downeast Johnny Posted September 25, 2015 Report Share Posted September 25, 2015 I may have misunderstood but it sounds like his bud is actually going for larger than stock Vette discs. Dunno for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NipRing Posted September 27, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 27, 2015 The 14" SSBC rotors are about $120 each and the wildwood big caliper is about $400. Gonna try and make something work. We don't want any two piece rotors in order to keep the cost down for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kissfans03ss Posted September 27, 2015 Report Share Posted September 27, 2015 Have you looked into the ctsv calipers?, a parts guy at a local Chevy dealership said that they are cheaper than the Z06 calipers and are still 6 pistons in front, I believe they were 03-06.
