95 Z Need small brake calipers?????

Ok guys I have decided that my stock calipers seem to weak to hold the front end. I cant get them to lock down and not roll with out pumping the pedal up. So im thinking I need new stronger calipers unless you guys have better suggestion. My catch is I have 15" wheels and the stock calipers skim the wheels face. So any suggestions would be great! Thanks

Stock front discs will easily hold the car for a full 6,000rpm burnout on slicks. No reason yours shouldn't do the same, without an upgrade. Check all the components out - something is not right.

First step: Bleed the lines and check for leaks.

Re: 95 Z Need small brake calipers?????

Ok thanks guys I'll try to see if I can find something going on. I have power bled 4 big bottles of fluid through, and used a tech 2 for abs bleeding no help there. Changed master cylinder still no help. I took the pads off and preped the rotors and pads little bit of help but still won't hold. I guess I might order abs delete kit, front calipers and rotors and see if that gets me some where.
