they really arent much better than your 08 calipers

just get good pads and rotors, call it a day

You should convert your rear to drums... Stops like butter

This is a brake upgrade: https://conceptzperformance.com/Cart...on.php?II=3118

StopTech, AP Racing, Willwood and other companies make similar products. Get out the wallet because its going to get expensive!

Drilling holes in rotors makes them weaker, go ahead and Google the pictures of cracked rotors... you'll see. If you are just going for looks then get whatever seems "cool" to you. Maybe those red caliper covers that say "Brembo" along with any generic drilled rotors will work for street use. Honestly until you start racing on the track (NOT the street) you are really using your brakes very much. The stock setup is fine with just better pads, new fluid and stainless lines.

Yea but why buy a vette caliper cover when you can buy the camaro ones. Same part but half the price 😄

i literally lol'd

But in a serious note, go with oem brembos. Theyre about 1k. Pretty cheap for looks with functional bragging rights.

Theres a member on here thats selling a set of racing brakes bbk for 1.5k. Pretty good deal.

the oem brembos aren't much if any better than the 06+ brakes

turboed350z

Yea but they sure as hell looks better. And im assuming the op is going for looks

i will give ya the looks... but stoptech rotors and good pads is cheaper... and then he can get the cool camaro brake covers (couldn't resist)

turboed350z

You act like he cant put camaro calipers on oem brembos. Duct tape does wonders 😉

That was the fastest turnaround I have ever seen in a thread.

Keep on eye on the marketplace for OEM Brembo, and be prepared to spend $1k on them. Brembo also has a Gtand Tourismo kit and your looking at $6k I believe.

The other route people take for looks is the Akebono kit from the newer car, this will set you back $1800 front and rear.
