haha I was goig to ask this, I "think" you can actually do that but I don't know for sure. Leaning towards a yes because I have seen people say they did it.

NO! The calipers are in the wrong position. You would need custom brackets, which are available from:

I know the full C% brake conversion...


I hav ejsut seen in sigs on v8 boards.

Ls1 calipers, running C5 rotors. I was intrigued by it but never really looked into it. I assume its what this guy is looking into.

C5 conversion is popular and a better upgrade but slightly pricey.

I think he is saying you need the brackets regardless of what caliper you go with because the rotors are a larger diameter so you need the caliper sitting out further.

A larger rotor with a stock caliper would help stoping and brake heat, but a larger rotor with a larger caliper would help stoping even more.
