I tried a search, couldnt find anything (probably just being stupid). Anyhoo, the junkyard got in a nice 94 Z28. Was thinking about yanking off the brakes, as I could probably get a pretty sweet deal on them (fronts only). Will they fit under the 16" honeycomb wheels? what modifications to the spindles will i have to make? Planning on just getting new pads and machining the rotors (provided they are still within specs).

thoughts?

 

Can be done but why? Not much of an upgrade at all if any. For all the cost involved why not get 98+ f body brakes? Same machining required but a swap that us members are very familiar with. The 93-97 single piston caliper/ iirc 11" rotor is almost identical to ours in brake feel/ reaction. I thought of doing what ur contemplating years ago and after alot of searching this site canned the idea and installed my 98+ brakes. Under $500 to do and braking is a large improvement. Now im onto c5 brakes. Keep searching this board. I dont mean to come off as brash , i got the exact same speech from a member yrs ago and i appreciate it every time i hit the stop pedal.

 

Most members would consider that swap a waste of time/money.
