Any value to J55 parts?
Upgraded my stock calipers (front & rear), pads, brake lines and rotors. They only had 18k miles on them. tons of life left in them.
Debating if there is any value in selling. Presume it would only be to someone who wanted to NCRS their car for a 92 model year. Feels wasteful to toss them out but I don't see any reason to keep them. Do the C4 people out there even buy stuff like this or do they all go for C5/C6 parts instead? thx |

Re: Any value to J55 parts?
Upgraded my front brakes to C5 last year and was able to sell my J55 on the corvette forum for $160. Regular C4 owners are interested in the J55 set up.
Good luck

Re: Any value to J55 parts?
If you decide you are going to toss them, I will send you a label for them and just ship them to me.. (in case I ever go back to stock)

Re: Any value to J55 parts?
For a racer the caliper brackets can wear out. If a street type user winds up selling calipers etc as replacement parts and winds up with leftover brackets, I collect 'em. I do have one spare set but we currently race 2 C4s...
