Help Your Big Brother Out! Haha a G8 GT needs Brembos!
I'm over here from G8board looking for some SS brakes. I need both calipers and rotors! I have a heavily modded 2009 Pontiac G8 GT and as you should all know that is the big brother to the new Camaro
 If you can help me out let me know!I'll update this first post if I've found what I'm looking for. So far still looking! Last edited by POPtheoriginal; 02-29-2012 at 11:30 PM. |

You want pics, eh?
There she is... for a 4000lb car these g8's are really lacking in braking power! |

I suppose only the fronts are necessary (the front rotors on these heavy cars are only 12" and warp wayyy too easily) but pending the price I'm willing to go for all four as well...
The calipers are more important to me than the rotors, as I wouldn't mind going for some drilled/slotted DBA's or something to look pretty behind my new brembos  but like I said if good rotors can be had for a reasonable price I'll definetly consider them!

^^^ Haha hell yeah! I wasn't sure if a G8 guy posting on a camaro forum would be acceptable, but im appreciative of the warm welcome! There is quite the market out there for your used SS calipers with G8 owners... like I said our cars are severely under-braked and unfortunately G8's didn't stick around long enough to get the wealth of aftermarket options available for camaros.
