The KORE3 Ø355mm C6 Z06 Front Big-Brake Kit for the 4th generation GM F-Body (GMF4) applications adapts high-performance, high-quality, 6th generation (C6) Z06 Corvette brake components to your LT1 or LS1 Camaro or Firebird. Please refer to the KORE3 GM Big-Brake Application Chart for details
regarding specific vehicle compatibility.
C6 Z06 front components are a significant improvement over the original equipment LT1 (Ø10.93") and LS1 (Ø11.93") F-body brake packages. The C6 Z06 rotors measure Ø355mm x 32mm thick (Ø14.0" x 1.26") and provide much higher brake torques and additional thermal mass for more aggressive, sustained driving. Additionally, the directional or pillar vane design of the C6 Z06 rotors versus the straight vane F-body rotors increases the overall cooling efficiency of the system and rigidity of the rotors, resulting in maximum braking performance and minimum brake fade.
The C6 Z06 front calipers are of a 6-piston, monobloc design with a patented pad-per-piston design such that each piston has it's own dedicated pad. This feature reduces the development of tapered pad wear commonly experienced by longer pads in similar applications. Due in part to the unique pad design, the calipers utilize cast-in bridge sections for maximum rigidity and overall stiffness resulting in improved pedal feel and pad wear.
There is excellent aftermarket support for C6 Z06 rotors and brake pads to suit nearly anybody's needs and/or budget. This Ø355mm KORE3 big-brake kit is an easy upgrade from the base level Ø325mm and Ø340mm kits and adds even more thermal capacity for those who push their cars up to and beyond the limits. Any 4th generation F-body running ø18" or larger wheels can benefit from the addition of this kit, whether you're grocery-getting, pro-touring, or a little bit of both.
Notes:
- This KORE3 big-brake kit is designed for GM 4th generation F-body spindles only, of which there are two (2) variations, both of which are compatible with this KORE3 kit.
- Kit installation requires minor to moderate, irreversible spindle modifications with basic metal fabrication tools. All necessary modifications are detailed in the instructions.
- Minimum Ø18" wheels are required with C6 Z06 kits for caliper to wheel clearance, however not all Ø18" wheels fit. Please verify fitment prior to ordering using the appropriate KORE3 fitment template. Wheel fitment is the buyer's responsibility. Please contact us if you have any questions regarding your specific application or the proper use of the templates.
- ABS is unaffected by the addition of this KORE3 big-brake kit.
