Click the "Kore3" banner in the sponsor list. Tobin can help you out with setting the car up!

The Kore3 hub /brackets are really nice looking, and you can also use aftermarket spindles that mount vette brakes and hubs but fit your car. CPP makes some as well as ATS I believe (the ATS ones are really nice but $$$ and may only come with aftermarket subframes).

The fronts are easy it's the rear with the E break that needs the custom brackets

+1 on kore 3. Tobin really knows his stuff and can help with the overall braking system set up.

If you know what your doing and/or more adventurous flynbye makes brackets that adapt the Gen5 camaro brembos to 1st gens. Those can be found for considerably less $ than Z06 brakes.
Ive never heard of anyone actually doing this hence the adventure part

I have C6 spindles on my Art morrison subframe so I used Wilwoods Z51 aerolite kit on aftermarket(DBA 5000s) Z51 rotors as my low cost 6 piston option (bought from Kore3)
