LT1 to C5 brake upgrade.
#16
So you guys are saying that the rear brakes are fine, just get better pads, and the C5 front kit would be the best for the money for me. I pretty much just want the rears to match the front, so I guess i'll pull the calipers off and powdercoat them or something.
I'll probably go with the UMI C5 conversion kit then and the Hawk HPS pads in the rear. Anybody have anything else to add?

save your self some money, buy the whole ls1 camaro frt brakes....$200 on ebay for the whole thing (spindle, calipers, rotors, pads etc.) all i did was rip off the spindle/brake assembly off, then installed the new spindle assemblies and put stainless steel lines on. eventually i'l put better pad and rotors on for track use. save your self some money, is the extra inch of rotor size worth almost $600 dollars compared to the umi kit??? use the extra money for racing slicks....
