You need to specify which rear disc brakes you want. The piece of sh*t 1988 down Delco-Moraine rear disc brakes or the wonderful, amazing one year only 1989 BW 9 bolt with PBR disc brakes. I'd rather have drum brakes or no brakes than Delco-Moraine rear disc brakes.

EDIT: I guess people could assume since your car is an 1987 IROC-Z with a BW 9 bolt with 3.45 gears you are wanting a Delco-Moraine disc brake rear but you could own more than one 3rd gen or be getting it to put in someone's 3rd gen.

Re: WTB Borg Warner 9 bolt 3.45 (Disk Brakes)

Airwolfe, thank you for contributing to my WTB post. I recently purchased the vehicle and was thinking of restoring it, per the RPO codes (GM3, G80, G92).

After doing some research, along with your comments, it seems the stock brake calipers are not the greatest… In the end, other than self satisfaction of having everything match the RPO codes, I assume it might be better to take a different approach?

In the mean time, at a minimum, I would like to stick with the same gear ratio in a 9 bolt. Please correct me if I am off base… (newbie 3rd gen Camaro owner) :-)
