what is needed for a brembo swap?

what is needed?
calipers
knuckles
pads
rotors,
brake lines?

is that all that i would need for the fronts?

im driving a 5 bolt 07 lt 4 door

 

Brembo Brake Upgrade Kit for LSJ's BBUK - Crate Engine Depot

dont know if lt and lsj are the same tho

 

Yea I know that kit , but as I think the ss's have bigger rotors I think I may need the knuckle as well correct?

 

not sure id contact tom at ced hed know for sure

 

Is he on this site?

 

As long as you have 5 lug you should be good to go with the kit. the early Cobalts all used the same knuckles. LSJ and non LSJ models.

 

haha the man has spoken hi tom! my pedders are great btw!

 

Timing is everything.

 

What if I already have r1 rotors, do I need the 2 rotors that come with this kit

 

So all I need is that kit, for an 07 L61? good news to me thanks man, just thought there woulda been different mounting locations for the caliper

 

You need LNF offset rotors. Your SS/Sc or otherwise will not work.

 

Nope, like Tom said, 05-07 all shared the same knuckle. As long as you have a 5 lug, you should be ok. If you're 4 lug, you'll need custom rotors, possibly more. Not sure how your hubs relate dimensions wise to the 5 lug ones.

 

So I need everything in that kit and everything in that kit will work with my car, HUD spacers brake lines n all?

Now, I'm looking to get a set of used brembo calipers, and aftermarket rotors and pads, is there anyway I can get the rest of the stuff in the kit - the pads rotors and calipers?

And could you pm me a price of each part
?

 

how much cheaper could you possibly be getting the brembos for? that price is already great. and you are not going to get better than the factory brembo blanks and ferrodo pads

 

im picked up a used set, and dont wanna have slotted rotor on the rears and not on the front...will just look dumb

 

So what about us 08 2.4 guys? We use LSJ brakes. But there wasnt a knuckle change as far as i can recall. So I think we should still be the same as an 05-07 SS/SC

 

id have to check what knuckles you have using your VIN but still the kit is all the same but if you have LNF knuckles you just don't use the hub spacers

 

Im an auto 2.4 2008 sport. So im not sure but id imagine the car using LSJ knuckles. Will have to get my vin and shoot it to you. Would be good for us 08s to know.
