brembo brake conversion

quite a few people have been speculating that you can put the 08 ss/tc brembo brakes on an older ss. is there any way you can look into putting a kit together to do this??? im sure if there was a complete kit with everything needed is would be popular.

iirc the 4 stud cars use a different knuckle, so this swap would cost a lot more than an ss model.

I tend to think the SS/SC's knickle would be different from the TC's knuckle as well since the Brembo calipers are much larger than our stock ones. I doubt they bolt up in the exact same location as our smaller ones...

from what i have read the knuckle is more simular to the malibu/g6 platform, however the mounting point for the caliper is in the same location, it just uses a different caliper bracket.
