Theres not much in the field of big brake upgrades for our cars other then the big names like Brembo, StopTech, Baer etc... Personally I think the C5 conversion is the most appealing combination available for our cars & best bang for your buck. I've seen a few with C6 conversions but the brakes are just down right ridiculously large. Just remember that when you go to a C5/6 brake you can no longer put on a wheel on smaller then 17's.

My plan is to go with a C5 Z06 Brake Conversion using the Black Z06 Calipers with Hawks pads & power slot rotors using whatever brackets I can find for the best deal. Then for the rear I would do the 98+ rear disc conversion with AC Delco stuff.
