Brembo Camaro SS brakes a direct bolt on for my LS?
I just bought my 2011 Camaro LS Synergy green and all ready have the bug to personalize it. My question is, can u take the brakes off of a new Camaro SS and bolt them directly onto my LS? I do realize I will have to upgrade my rims as well because my car came with the black steel rally wheels. I have found a set of front breaks all ready for a hell of a price, just looking now to find the rear set, but before I spend 5 or 6 hundred dollars I want to know if it is possible and how hard it is to do if it is possible.
Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.

You'd probably need the SS wheels too. I've heard the LS wheels don't have enough clearance.

I am going to get new rims. Haven't decided if I am going to go with a stock looking set of black 20" SS wheels or go up to a custom set of 22"s. I just don't want to spend a ton of money on rims if I have to keep the ugly calipers that are on my 18"s.

You need the SS rotors as well.

What you will need.
Front and rear calipers. Front and rear rotors. Front and rear brake lines. I recomend a SS Master cylender. You might as well flush out the brake system with high temp brake fluid wile you are at it. Tires and rims you already know.

I've done this. You need lines, rotors, calipers (w/ hardware), pads, and brake fluid. You can either use the OEM fluid, or upgrade.
I used R1 concepts rotors, Pedders lines, Hawk ceramic pads, and Super Blue DOT4 brake fluid. It's not a direct bolt on in the back. You have to trim the dust shield to allow the bigger rotor. You'll see what I mean with the wheel off. Check this thread
