Re: 9 bolt
FYI....89-92 9-bolts came stock with PBR brakes, so yours aren't "4th gen brakes".

Re: 9 bolt
I thought 90s up didn't have 9 bolts anymore? I know of 2 5.7 GTAs, a 90 and a 92 that both have a 10 bolt.

Re: 9 bolt
Regardless of the 90-92 debate...89 GTA came with PBRs on 9-bolts stock. I sold one a couple years ago.
It is my understanding, there was a 9-bolt shortage in the end, so yes...Some late GTAs ended up with 10-bolts.

Re: 9 bolt
I think it's got to be in 90 too that they switched over, 91 & 92 didn't have it an the last 90 I looked at had a 10 bolt too. it was a fully documented car so the rear was stock.

Re: 9 bolt
My 88 GTA had the 9 bolt, but with the old metric brakes that had the 'racheting' e-brake that quit working probably 20 years ago !

Re: 9 bolt
Actually they are; the rear is out of an 88 GTA. I purchased the rear brakes with a 4th gen Camaro 10 bolt, and caliper brackets for the 9 bolt from Flynbye LLC !
My 88 GTA had the 9 bolt, but with the old metric brakes that had the 'racheting' e-brake that quit working probably 20 years ago !

In other words, it was only upgraded to the same as later year 9-bolts.

Re: 9 bolt
You updated a 88 9-bolt rear to 89 brakes by putting n 4th gen brakes, that are really only the same as 89+ 9-bolt brakes.
Still have the smaller 27-spline axles in it? Or did up update to the bigger axles too?
