djxib | Replacement Brembo Rotors | ||
Senior Guru
|
My steering wheel has started to shimmy on light to medium braking, and it's clear that the rotors are on the way out.
They are the Brembo drilled / slotted type, the calipers are 4-pot (black). I'll post up a picture later, but need some advice on identifying the model number/type for replacement (I prefer the slotted-only type) and also best place to buy. Oh - I need pads too. Recommendations on street/strip occasional mountain run pads? Cheers! Andy |

Are they direct corvette replacement rotors or an upgrade kit with different calipers, etc.

Also check with Tire Rack.
BTW, the C4 never came from the factory with 4 piston brakes. 2, yes, 1, for sure... 4? nope. The black, or Grand Sport, calipers were the same as the ZR1 or J55, but a little bit thicker and black. |

If he has the same or similar brakes to mine then he neesd 330x28mm rotors Which I did not find at tire rack. I would like to find a pair of rear 2pc rotors to match my fronts though |

OK so here are some pictures.
Jeff - thanks for the suggestions, I'll try racingbrake. Looks like mine are similar to the pictures you posted up except my calipers look slightly different. |
