I could be wrong but those look like LS brakes.

That's about what they look like.

Is there some reason you suspect they're not that?

Re: what do i have

They do appear to be LS1's, which would have been from a 98+ car.

Re: what do i have

the print on the side says 06/06/01 so im assuming thats the production date but the part numbers dont match up to be ls1 brakes or atleast i havent found anything yet

i dont suspect them not to be ls1 brakes but i wanted to confirm that they were before i try to get the rest of the parts for the swap

Re: what do i have

I'm almost positive thats what they are. I have a set on my floor at my house that I have been waiting to swap in. I would have to go home and look at mine to be posotive.

Re: what do i have

look like ls1's to me.

FWIW, the ls1 brakes setup is a common swap to the earlier 93-97 cars, so its quite possible they did indeed come off a 95, but were not original to the 95
