As I posted in the What you did to your GMT900 post. I have stared the Z06 brake upgrade. I have so far ordered the Brackets and the Z06 yellow calipers. Next I will be getting the Baer 15" rotors. Trying to find best price and if I want to get the 2 piece ones. I will have a write up as well for it. I know this has been brought up before. But I have talked to Rudy a guy on PerformanceTruck.net that made the bracket said he has people install on NNBS without any issues. So this is going to be a try.

Super nice.

If possible could you do a piece by piece cost breakdown as well?

Yeah I def will. So far I have paid 150 for brackets I think they are usually 200 or so and yellow Z06 calipers I got for 525. I talked to Baer for the 15" rotors and they will be 450 for the fronts.

Why don't you just order double of everything and let me know how much I owe you...

Haha. I think the total should be right around 1100-1200. Still a lot cheaper then Wilwoods. But nice thing is you can piece it together shop around for better deals. I really wanted Yellow calipers and still a great price for brand new ones. But I saw some grey ones on there that were going for 350.

This is a great idea.
Can you provide links to the sources you have been speaking of?
What's the smallest size wheel that they will fit?

Thanks
