Gen6 ZL1 front rings?
Reading around still learning about these cars. I read on a racing brake post that the z28 and gen 6 zl1 brake systems are basically the same except zl1 has iron rings. I know the hats are diff on the gen6 so it won’t be a direct swap. But would it be possible to run the gen6 zl1 front rings on the z28 hat? Seems the zl1 rotors are 360$ or so each.

Look like different size rotors.
From Chevrolet Press releases: 2015 Z/28 Rotor diameter x thickness, front (in / mm): 15.5 x 1.4 / 394 x 36 Rotor diameter x thickness, rear (in / mm): 15.3 x 1.3 / 390 x 32 2017 ZL1 Brake Rotor Size (in / mm): Front: 15.35 / 390 vented, with six-piston monobloc calipers Rear: 14.4 / 365 vented, with four-piston fixed calipers And what about rears? Iron up front and carbon in the rear? |

I know you can run the z28 front rotors using a zl1 caliper on the racing brake ccr kit for the gen6 zl1. I’m being overly optimistic but would be a great alternative.
