| Did you lay them ontop of eachother face-to-face? You can't really see 5mm of crosssectional difference like that. The size difference plays too many games with my eyes. If I have some downtime at work this evening, I'll take a picture or two of the difference. | |

That's true. I tried to check it out today but I didn't have any of the rotors that are said to fit the vettes or cts's in stock. I don't like how many different part numbers there are depending on the year and car... Oldsman, do you have the pads for those calipers or no? | |

| That's a 5x120 vette rotor sitting on our stock 5x115 hub. It don't fit. There's the part numbers for reference. That rotor is what lists for a C5 and it seems to have directional vents, therefore two part numbers. I measured it with a tape measure and it's exactly 13". I ordered a gxp rotor to check out. That should fit our hub. The caddy CTS lists a bunch of different part numbers for rotors BD126023 : 07 CTS non-V BD126021 : 06-07 CTS w sport sus. BD126187 : 06-07 CTS JE5 BD126193 : 04-07 CTS J56 I believe the only rotors that go with these -V calipers are the J56 rotors but I thought I read somewhere that the CTS-Vs have 6 lugs?? | |

Oh well I guess I will throw these back on ebay.
Which model GXP rotor did you order? | |

| How hard would it be to have a machinist pop out a 5x115 hole pattern on one of these? I was just thinking that you see the "universal" rims done the same way with 5x120 and 5x115 hole's all the time. I wouldn't imagine it costing more than $25-$50 at max. I had 8 lbs of flywheel removed and a resurface for $50. It couldn't be that hard... What am I missing?? | |

| I mentioned this to my mechanic today, and he said it's possible to have custom rotors made. I'm googling around trying to find one. Maybe here | |

| In case the F-Body brake mod just won't do, here is a big brake kit now available that is supposed to fit '97-99 Rivieras. Supplied by Precision Brakes Company for HorsePowerFreaks.com - if they fit, this would be the next step up in the search for ultimate braking performance (suitable for road course racing, ie. repeated stops from 120+ mph). If you aren't planning to take the car to the track, the main reason to buy such a kit would be for looks. Imo, they do look pretty cool. Rotors are 13" dia x 1.1" thick, 2-piece w/ alum hats, available drilled, slotted, drilled & slotted, or plain. Calipers are 4-piston 'Forged Superlight' (FSL) from Wilwood, various powder coating colors available. Kits include necessary brackets and hardware, stainless steel brake lines, and brake pads (likely are Wilwood BP10, a high performance street pad). Probably not the exact set, but close: Price for fronts: $1,649.34 Order from: HorsePowerFreaks.com I've read the sets are made to order, so may take a while to get these. Not a bad price for what you get. I would bet lots of money this 'kit' is not designed specifically for Riviera, so it probably not balanced as well as stock. May need some testing/tuning to get things dialed in for safe high speed operation. More info found here: http://www.stangnet.com/mustang-forums/576316-precision-brakes-company.html A rear set is also available, link: https://rivperformance.editboard.com/t4381p60-12-rear-disc-brake-mod#80300_________________ '05 GTO 6.0L • 6-spd • 95k miles • 0-60: 4.8s • 16.9 avg MPG • Nelson Ledges Lap: 1:26'95 Celica GT 2.2L • 5-spd • 165k miles • 0-60: yes'98 SC Riviera • 281k miles • 298 HP/370 TQ • 0-60: 5.79s • ET: 13.97 @ 99.28 • 4087 lb • 20.1 avg MPG • Nelson Ledges Lap: 1:30 3.4" pulley • AL104 plugs • 180º t-stat • FWI w/K&N • 1.9:1 rockers • OR pushrods • LS6 valve springs • SLP headers • ZZP fuel rails KYB GR2 struts • MaxAir shocks • Addco sway bars • UMI bushings • GM STB • Enkei 18" EV5s w/ Dunlop DZ101s • F-body calipers EBC bluestuff/Hawk HP plus • SS lines • Brembo slotted discs • DHP tuned • Aeroforce • Hidden Hitch^^^ SOLD ^^^ '70 Ninety-Eight Holiday Coupe 455cid • 116k miles^^^ SOLD ^^^

| Rears only for '95. That makes sense. But '97-99 for fronts. Looks like they did their homework. Really, any big brake kit for previous gen Camaro should work on '97-up Riviera. Just need the right brackets and should bolt up. Rotors are the same 12" stock, would need larger wheels for 13" size. _________________ '05 GTO 6.0L • 6-spd • 95k miles • 0-60: 4.8s • 16.9 avg MPG • Nelson Ledges Lap: 1:26'95 Celica GT 2.2L • 5-spd • 165k miles • 0-60: yes'98 SC Riviera • 281k miles • 298 HP/370 TQ • 0-60: 5.79s • ET: 13.97 @ 99.28 • 4087 lb • 20.1 avg MPG • Nelson Ledges Lap: 1:30 3.4" pulley • AL104 plugs • 180º t-stat • FWI w/K&N • 1.9:1 rockers • OR pushrods • LS6 valve springs • SLP headers • ZZP fuel rails KYB GR2 struts • MaxAir shocks • Addco sway bars • UMI bushings • GM STB • Enkei 18" EV5s w/ Dunlop DZ101s • F-body calipers EBC bluestuff/Hawk HP plus • SS lines • Brembo slotted discs • DHP tuned • Aeroforce • Hidden Hitch^^^ SOLD ^^^ '70 Ninety-Eight Holiday Coupe 455cid • 116k miles^^^ SOLD ^^^ | |

Probably have to get there right when they put the thing on blox.

If it were my pick-n-pull yard, I'd yank them off as soon as they arrived on the wrecker. Back when I was buying a few sets of F-Body caliper sets to re-build, I received a set of PBR calipers by mistake that were almost brand new, if not darn close to new. Unfortunately they did not have the correct F-Body brackets and the pistons were smaller than the other F-body stuff I received so I had to ship them back for a swap and received GM F-Body calipers and brackets in return. My point being is that the high end stuff had already been removed from the car and still looked new where the others appeared to have been sitting in the yard a little longer and required bead blasting and overhaul to make new. The condition of the PBR's were such that I would have bolted them on my car the way they were if they were correct for my car. Most likely the junk yard pulled them as soon as receiving the car, yet a worker there shipped them to me by mistake and was verified it was a mistake after talking to the owner about them. Some high end stuff may slip through the cracks but not much. | |

| I know this topic's been hibernating for a while, but I found a similar topic at LS1Tech where the F-Body guys found a way to make the CTS-V calipers work with 14" rotors. I have to think, if we can swap to F-Body, and they've made it work, then this can happen on a Riv. It's a lengthy read, but seems realistic:
http://ls1tech.com/forums/suspension-brakes/1117381-super-cheap-big-brake-kit-info.html
Does anyone know, were the CTS-V calipers ever sold?

| Interesting... It looks as thought the pads for the CTSV calipers are much smaller than the Fbody pads. However, 14" rotors should make a huge improvement regardless. Guess i need to see if i have the 1"+ of clearance with my 18's.

| UPDATE: I've done some researching - if you look around, pairs of used big brake calipers come up for sale from time to time on other automotive boards. One of the popular choices for calipers that will fit our cars is the forged 4-piston StopTech ST-40 (Standard) and STR-40 (Trophy Racing). The standard ST-40s are the calipers included with the 83.183.4600.71 kit posted above. Actually, these calipers will fit many different cars, depending on the brackets included. For our (F-Body) application, they are meant to be used with 13.1" x 1.25" (332mm x 32mm) rotors. Here are some pictures of the units: ST-40 (also available in blue yellow, or gold): STR-40 are ultra lightweight, and feature silicone dust boots (only in grey): Specs (click for larger image): Because these calipers are used on many cars, including: Honda, Ford, Audi, Porsche, Mitsu and BMW, look for sales postings for used ST-40 / STR-40 calipers in forums for these cars, in addition to F-body and LS1 forums (Camaro, Firebird, GTO, Corvette). The reason these calipers get sold is because their owners often upgrade to the ST-60 6-piston calipers. Stoptech products are track-proven, quality products designed to last, and are rebuildable. A few links to used calipers that sold for reasonable prices: http://forums.evolutionm.net/vendor-used-parts-classifieds/585134-stoptech-st60-st40-brake-calipers-cheap.html ($400) http://nasaforums.com/viewtopic.php?t=26415&p=187311 ($450) http://www.twinturbo.net/nissan/300zx/forums/classified/view/150925/Stoptech-ST40-calipers-t-top-shades-intercooler-pipes-etc.html ($450) http://forums.triplezoom.com/showthread.php?3190353-FS-2x-Stoptech-4-Piston-ST-40-Calipers-and-brackets-650-shipping.

| sooooo.... has anyone figured out anything about getting a 14" rotor in 5 x 115 bolt pattern?
I know oldsman104 recently finished the cts-v upgrade on his GTP. But I'm not sure what got used for rotors.
I'm seriously looking at going right to the cts-v calipers when I go to coilovers this winter. If the only hang-up is 14" rotors, I can always poke a 5 x 115 pattern into a Z06 rotor. One of the mills at the shop can plot hole patterns, so its not too hard. _________________ | |
