I need to replace the front pads on my '86 IROC Z-28. I have been to two part stores (advance auto and a local place with a pretty knowledgeable staff). Both places have asked whether or not I have the performance braking package. If I do I need to pay $100 plus for a set of pads, if not they are less than $50. What are they talking about and how do I tell if I have this performance package?

Haha I doubt you really need them, might be one of those things that come up as recommended on their computers for an equal replacement.

I haven't had local Autozone/Oreillys tell me that when I upgraded my rotors/pads. I still went with the expensive slotted/drilled rotors and a good set of brake pads though, Love em.

The pads are definitely not the same and apparently both sets were factory installed on cars.... not looking for an upgrade... just OEM replacement.

99% or 3rd gens dont have the high performance brakes, those are 2 piston aluminum caliper installed on the 1le and 92 b4c cars. You dont have those, so you want the cheaper of the two style pads
