But the ones in the auction at 1,500 USD are not bad considering you are getting the pads. But the cost of the rotors is going to put your nuts in a vice.

I agree... Unsure if this is true, but they were saying it would cost $5k plus for a "brake" job on a new ZR1. (many said it would be well OVER 5k)

I figured they were Jeff and also figured the carbon fiber rotors are killer $. Besides does a 15" rotor with calipers fit under an 18" wheel? I imagine the adapter would need to be different also.
Am I correct in assuming the Z06 calipers would use your C5 adapters?

You could use my adapter, but it creates such a f'd up offset when going to the larger 4-6 piston calipers you need a new bracket.

To give you an idea, ZR-1 pads are around 100 bucks per axle, the Carbon pads on the new ZR1 are 600 per caliper. That is dealer cost. I priced the rotors out and can't remember what they were, but 1,500 sticks out in my mind. The calipers from GM are cheap. Maybe 250-300 each for Brembo 6 piston with Corvette script on them.

I already spent on mine and it was the liners/pistons/rods/rings from a new 95 crate motor that I bought from a fellow member; I can't afford anything else.

I still plan on having a Hawaii ZR-1 Christmas though:
