c5 Z06 Calipers
 
I am thinking about upgrading to the c5 Z06 Calipers front and back. the questions I have are:
1: is it a simple bolt on replacement?
2: should I then use c5 Rotors and brake pads?
3. on the rear how will it effect the Ebrake?

Thanks for the help in advance!

Yes it's simple. When doing the fronts and with the bleeding, it should take no longer than three hours start to finish.

You can, or you can use base C6 rotors. Pads I recomend the Hawk HPS. I would also recomend using the base C6 caliper as it is a better piece than the C5.

Don't worry about the rear, just refinish the rear caliper to match the front.

Thanks Jeff! Do I need any adpters for the new calipers? or will they just bolt right up?

I like those!! What would a complete setup cost for those thinking about it, Jeff?

Will they fit with the stock 5 point rims?
