Why not use the ones for the NBS and make them work? Fabricate fabricate!

Why not use the yellow z06 ones? They are 6 piston. I think the CTS are 4 piston.

Actually the New CTS-V's are 6 piston in the front. They are just a tad different looking then the Z06's. But I can't find any Z06's in yellow. But I can find CTS-V's in yellow for about 100 more. If I can find cheaper Z06's then I will powder coat them. As for finding NBS brackets I can't find them anywhere. So I will just let my brother measure and make them. He is a mechincal engineer. If I go that route. I have to see what coast is and decide if it is just better to do wilwoods.
I spent right around $1500 on my Z06 brake setup. $300 of that was just the brackets. That should give you a good idea of where you'd be after it was all said and done. That was for all brand new parts. Labor was free, I did it myself.
I can tell you that the wilwood kit was ALOT better than the Z06 setup I had.
There was a guy on silveradoss.com who had a bunch of the brackets left. His username was Rudy.
