I had Marc upgrade my calipers to the newer GS calipers which he said had a bit stiffer castings that the stock ZR-1 calipers and would improve pedal feel. At the same time I replaced the stock rubber brake lines with braided ones I believe from DRM. I felt the changes improved brake feel. On the '95 I did not need to change the calipers. --Bob
Rgr. This seems to be a popular option, with good results. Wasn't having much luck finding GS calipers with internet search, but not ruling it out. Did you do front and rears, and do you recall any issues with parking brake hookup?

Thanks for your response.
