Found a new set of 96 Grand Sport calipers at Keen Parts, still in GM boxes. They could not believe they were on the shelf and said they were the last set. Know they are hard to find being only 1 years so pulled the trigger. Now thinking about new rotors and pads. Current set are 8 years old and have about 40,000 miles on them so might be time. Advance Auto has Power Stop K1518-26 Front and Rear Z26 Muscle Carbon-Fiber Ceramic Brake Pad and Drilled & Slotted Rotor Kit with 25% off (about $435 shipped with tax). Any suggestions?
Thanks
I hear you Charley! I settled on the PowerStop K1528-26 Z26 set. I paid $398 delivered from CarParts.com. I decided that while I could spend lot more for high end braking rotors and pads, my driving habits just don’t warrant it. It’s the same reason I went with the GS/SE calipers instead of something more radical in the first place.
Be well my friend,
