Yes you can use the Z51 rotors with the C5 upgrade. All you need is the UMI C5 adapters, C5 calipers (optional) C5 pads and 13" rotors. See my sig.

Z51 is a suspension and brake package for Corvettes somewhat like the 1LE option for Camaros. There I told you now you have to buy it smart a$$.


4 pistons in the rear or you're not serious? A thread in the suspension and brake section and youre telling someone to run N2O when they're asking about brakes???? You really don't know jack do you?
