Wilwood brakes for 1992 camaro?
Anyone have Wilwood front brakes for a 1992 z28 or know where I can get this setup? I already have the rear wilwood rear brakes and want to match with wilwood front setup.
I called wilwood and they said they do not make a kit for our cars except the dynalite kit with the 10.75" rotor. My rear rotors are 12.19 or 12.75" which would make it look retarded and probably wont work right if I went with smaller front rotors.
Someone please help me out here, I would be greatly appreciated. I am looking for atleast 12" rotors and I see there are kits with 14" rotors.. I plan to run 18" wheels so fitment shouldn't be a problem.

Yup the Wilwoods will be awesome. Much better than one of the GM factory swaps. Ed Miller offers these. Here is the link:

I'll receive mine in a few weeks. Will let you know how they are.

How do you like your pedal feel?
More or less effort than stock?
More or less pedal travel than stock?
Street?
Auto-x?
Track days?
Road Racing?
Drag?
How much do you care about weight?
How much do you care about component life?
How much do you care about ease of pad changes?
How pretty do they have to be?
Which calipers are on the rear?
Part number for rear kit?
