I want to dramatically improve braking distance. Can I swap out a 4th gens ABS system into a 3rd gen IROC-Z? I figure it would be alot cheaper if it's a used setup as opposed to new. Wha do you think?

I want a significant change and feel. dennisbernalitaly 04-30-2005, 08:11 PM bear or wilwood, pretty expensive, but worth it. I have seen guys drop braking distance 30 to 40 feet with a full front/rear set up, and wide sticky tires. bubba353z 05-03-2005, 12:47 PM A lot of guys are doing the LS1 front swap. Check out thirdgen.org - I'm sure there are posts about the swap. Our rears (if you have disks) are not too bad with some good pads. You can also do a LS1 rear swap, if you have drums. If you have the $$$ though, Baer makes some sweet setups that bolt in. respectirocz 05-03-2005, 01:57 PM i have an 87 iroc and i'm in the process of doing an ls1 brake upgrade check out bigbrakeupgrade.com its alot cheaper then the other kits and its alot better than stock Solidous_Snake 05-03-2005, 02:15 PM Sweet. I looked through the link you posted and there all out of stock. Did you order your kit already? respectirocz 05-04-2005, 12:04 AM i didnt order the kit because i can do most of the work myself, and i can get parts cheaper, so i bought only what i need, email him, i'm sure he can work somthing out if you send him your spindles (thats if u can afford to have the car sit for a while) | ||
