Thread: What brand of brakes to get

Hey forum,

I am considering upgrading the front brakes on my '99 GPGT cause the stock ones kinda suck. I am wondering do any of you know of any brands that make calipers and rotors for our cars? I am still in the research stage of this right now. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
tgarison

New rotors with a higher end pad, and your good to go.

Thanks matt5112, any other brands, I noticed companies like Baer, Willwood, and Stop Tech don't make anything for our cars

ok will do thanks

SSBC makes brakes for us
SSBC:: A127-6

But your better off buying some F-body or Corvette calipers instead.

PowerSlot cryo-treated slotted rotors with Hawk HPS pads being squeezed by FBod clamps. For that extra little bit, stainless steel lines and synthetic DOT III fluid.

There's something I learned about this place, the folks here tend to flame on anything they don't have. Moral of the story is simple: Quality parts cost money. It's your money. Spend it how you wanna and d* what anyone else has to say. They don't like? They can buy your parts for you.

x2 on they cryo treated Centric Powerslots. I have those with EBC Redstuff pads, on an F-Body setup. Incredible stopping power.

Centric=PowerSlot now?

Stoppy brakes are good.

I remember there being something about getting monte carlo caliper brackets that move the caliper out like an inch and allow for a bigger rotor. could look into that

Its been like that for a while I think.

I use Centric website to look up calipers and cross reference them.
