Cheap and easy way to upgrade LS1 Camaro or Trans Am brakes. CTS V Brembo install.

[@SlimWhittman]

I started watching your channel a few months ago but until today I had only seen your new videos. You have matured and mastered the craft of creating professional content in the years since this video was made, but I enjoyed seeing you at this point in your YT career.

[@donaldgavigan9376]

Fun watching your old videos. Seeing how much more relaxed you are now.

[@clutchthepearls3062]

Keep an eye on the pin kit. The ones that come with pads are often a few mm's shorter than the OEM ones. I reuse mine every time because of this. They have the possibility of backing out.

[@LegitStreetCars]

I will definitely check on them .They went in really nice and snug so I don't expect any issues. Thanks for the heads up and thanks for watching. Alex

[@clutchthepearls3062]

No problem. I'm sure they're probably safe 99.999% of the time, but I have seen a forum post about it happening before with a different set of Brembos. You can really tell the difference looking at the front of the caliper. Mine, with the OEM pin kit, look like this. www.carid.com/images/brembo/page/bottom/brake-kit.jpg

[@Antimatter.]

clutchthepearls Wow! You took the words right out of my mouth , I just did lower dust pads on my e63 amg and the pins they gave me where shorter I didn't like that , the stock ones you can see the cone of the pin stick out past the caliper for visual complete seat , another reason is the stock pins are stainless steel no stick with a magnet , the ones included where zinc coated steel equals possible rust

[@derekr1854]

I wouldnt mind getting them. I put a 4th gen fbody on my 04 grand prix and works very well.

[@mcbridemotorsports5788]

I work for a Professional Race Team IMSA Road Racing, and this reason alone is why safety wire the pins. We had the same issue with pins backing out

[@littlemotor414]

Sweeeeeeeet! I was looking to do this, but wasn't sure what it would take modification-wise... Thanks for eliminating any guesswork, and trial/error sir! CTSV Brembos going on my '72 442 ASAP!!! 😎

[@cjjackson1180]

Did you get it to work on your 442?

[@dennisporter3498]

That looks great! I was surprised at the brake pads you chose though, performance calipers and big rotors with a ceramic pad. The ceramic pad is made for comfort and low noise but you get a lot more braking grip from a performance semi metallic brake pad like ebc yellow stuff or blue stuff if available with the calipers. Thought I'd mention this since people that watching for performance upgrade options might copy your choices and wonder why they don't notice much difference in stopping power.

[@BillClay88]

He specifically mentioned aesthetics. That's what 95+% of ppl have these BBKs for. How's the noise level with aggressive pads? Coz I see a lot of annoying squeaking (not sure I trust the drilled and slotted rotirs either) with ppl spending 2Gs or more. That's unacceptable.

[@shanedoink]

Great detail, great camera work with a quality camera. You delivered a lot of information without rambling on. This was very informative, job well done. Please do more videos like this for the f body. Im totally doing this brake upgrade. BTW I want your garage!

[@Savineyard3]

I'm doing the same CTS-V brake swap onto my 97 Z28 with the same 4-Piston Calipers but I'll also swap in "Detroit Speed" SKF X-Tracker wheel hubs. My Camaro needs a 1 inch or 1-1/4 spacer that has it's own studs because both my 18 inch C5 Magnesium Wheels that I use for road racing and my 18 inch C6 wheels for the street were both over a inch inside the fenders. For brake rotors I'm using C6 Z06 Eradispeed rotors from Baer which might have a tiny difference in offset. If so, a few washers in between the spindle and caliper should center the brake caliper and brake pads. Using the C6 Z06 Rotors, you don't have to have the center bore enlarged verses the 5th Gen SS Camaro...

[@rogerramjet5092]

Super glad I found this channel keep up the good work. I flatter myself that I know a thing or two about most things automotive. The video was filled with nothing but good info. You provide enough information for the reasonable competent enthusiast to do the job. What adds to my comfort level is you give enough explanation of why without getting too involved again reasonable competent. Should have no trouble what so ever. I performed a similar up grade to my old 3rd gen 92 formula 350 WS6. using C-5 13" with the stock 4th gen Rrs PBR and 17x9 all around with a square tire 275/55 17. used the 1le combo valve the get more rear brake bias. worked well one of the best upgrades I made to the car better even than the 383 /425WHP with beefed 700R4 . Thanks for sharingt his is a great upgrade again throe explain and illustration. Happy new sub. going to binge watch a bit.

9:48 Great info I was also told by the man who creates all the brake kits for Stoptech.

[@confuse3671]

Thanks for the video. I really came here for the part numbers and see how hard it was to do. However, I think you have the rotor on the wrong side. Air is supposed to move from the inside to the outside of the rotor.

[@gabrielfranjul9278]

The stainless steel brake line you used was the same you used with the stock Caliper?

[@camarosspr]

Did you installed a brake proportioning valve? And tested and set it, as explained in another youtube miata video and regain front/rear wheel lock as the stock setup the factory dialed. Should set to front and rear to lock at the same time, And then dial a little more front lock. And also regaining oversteer understeer stock setup Both of these setups can be dangerous is not addressed. Another youtube brembo instalation ended locking the the front tires At a minimum pedal presure.

[@abushmaster3628]

I know it's been a while but what'd you end up doing for the rear brakes.. ?? : -)

[@antoniogonzales9217]

Wheel spacers won't give you height clearance from the rotor. They give you clearance by moving the wheel futher away from the car.

[@angelahahn3046]

These will not fit in the rear. I'm sure anything is possible but they are pretty huge for the back. Most just do the fronts and paint the rear to match. Alex

[@hebanks4252]

Ok understood. but tell me, I'm pretty sure there was a video on installing Coevette brakes all around the 98-02 Camaro. Can you verify?

[@LegitStreetCars]

Hmm with the 17s I dont really have any other suggestions. You could just go with the c5 z06 brake upgrade.

[@cameronvandygriff7048]

ATS-V brakes will fit on the front under 17s but you have to drill the mounting holes to 14mm I believe

[@Psykldoc]

I gotta say that by 4 min into the video this isn’t sounding cheap OR easy, given that no TA came w 18” wheels, so right oughta the box you’re telling me I need 4 new 18” wheels and tires on my WS6 that came w the upgrade to 17”!!!! That means I’d have to recalibrate the speedometer then, too!! Then, just for a chaser, you toss in the fact that I have to get the BRAND NEW ROTORS you’re recommending specially machined to fit?!?! NOT CHEAP!!! DEFINITELY NOT EASY!!!! WTF?!?!?! Y’know what? You get a “spam flag” for sucking me in and wasting my time!

[@CaptainThirdGen]

@@Psykldoc for 18in wheels, a 275/35/18 tire is same diameter as stock, and does not require speedo recalibration. For as big of an upgrade as this is over stock, it is cheap and easy. If you were familiar prices of kits like Baer, Wilwood, etc, this CTSV setup is very cheap and easy Also, the use of OEM parts is nice for future serviceability. Having the rotors machined really shouldnt be a big deal, and shouldnt be very expensive.

[@BearGrils55]

He’s not telling you that you “need” to do anything. He’s telling an audience what it takes to upgrade the f body brakes to CTS-V brakes. Nobody put a gun to your head and demanded that you upgrade your car. Also, nobody made you click on the video. If you’re too lazy, cheap, and not mechanically inclined, this isn’t the project for you.

[@limabravo6065]

It’s funny that I just added a “big brake kit” to my 3rd gen 89 IROC and by big brake kit I mean the 98-02 “LS1” brakes. And dont get me wrong the LS1 brakes on a 3rd gen is a dramatic improvement over the stock 10” single piston front brakes. But what I like is that now since I have the modified spindles I only need the correct bracket for whatever brakes I want. So quick question, what power level would you recommend to justify upgrading to these brakes?, I’m currently sitting at 330 hp at the tire

[@bhcamaro2002]

Depends if you do sprinted driving on backroads and weight of the car. My car with heads and cam was required. It's a big improvement over factory brakes

The car is a T-top but I’ve added weld in s. frame connectors. Like I said I have the “ls1” brakes up front and pbr calipers out back on a BW 9 bolt with 3.27 gearing. I’m in the middle of a power train swap right now with an Lq4 running 862 heads, so 10.5:1 compression, drop in truck cam for the 6.0 so power wise on paper at least I think ill be sitting at around stock ls3 power with everything coming in early because of the truck cam (using a truck cam because this isn’t a race car and I wanted my hp / tq down low). I have the opportunity to get a set of 2012 Camaro SS brakes for practically nothing and from what I’ve read my car will be 600-800 lbs lighter than the 5th gen. So what do you think about only running the front 4 piston brakes and leaving the rear as is or should I swap the rears out as well, oh and should I bother with an adjustable proportioning valve? Thanks for the help n sorry to be long winded

No difference at all in steering. Just better braking and cosmetically they really stand out. One of the best mods I've done. Alex

@@LegitStreetCars Thanks for responding! Ya, idk why it's just something that always looked great to me. Do you think the silver CTSV would look goofy on a white fbody? I constantly battle with this. Lol

[@LegitStreetCars]

I was debating that too since the calipers came siver like on the Cts. Here's what you can do. Run it silver at first and see if you like it. If you do you're done but if you don't it's not hard to take them back off for paint. I really like the red on my white car though, silver may blend in too much.

[@alucarus6]

@@LegitStreetCars Very true. Mainly, I wish they would I just don't want it to say CTSV since you'll get those douches that say, "it's not a CTSV". Lol. Oh whale. Thanks for the tips, sir! Sick car, btw.

[@LegitStreetCars]

Yea I hear ya. Just paint them and be done then.

Not all ebay rotors are bad. Stopteck and brakenetic make good stuff

[@abroradilov]

Will this work for 2014 camaro rs ? With 20 inch wheels?

[@325hpls1]

So have you tested maybe the difference in stopping distances?

[@LegitStreetCars]

Not yet but that will be a video in the future. I can tell you from going to the track a couple weeks ago thats its night and day difference. Stopping from 140mph was awesome.

[@taylorbowes2735]

Just wondering, why go with the 5th gen Camaro rotor(14 in) over a ctsv rotor(14.4in)? Cost?

[@bhcamaro2002]

Best fit and won't warp pads

[@TheJavoiram]

Do you know where I can get new pins for my used brembos?

[@bhcamaro2002]

Maybe Ebay

[@confuse3671]

Looks like you installed the left rotor on the right side. Air is supposed to move from the inside to the outside.

[@zandzplumbingplumbing8273]

I can't find the 14inch rotors on eBay . Can you get a part number for me ?

[@LegitStreetCars]

Check the description of the video. I listed part numbers. Thanks for watching and let me know if you need anything else.

[@aag6499]

LegitStreetCars what kind of front struts you have ? Can those raise/ lower the front end ? Please let me know . As I own a 99 trans am ws6 and would like to raise it 1.5 in to acomódate my new wheels.

[@charleshenson4183]

@@aag6499 I'm not a big fan of coil overs,but they may fill your need quite nicely.

[@Joshua932-l2c]

Will that fit underneath a 16 inch wheel or do I have to upgrade to to the 17 wheel

[@LegitStreetCars]

I don't think there is any way to fit a 16. Some have done certain 17s but grinding was required.

[@mmoreria85]

May I ask which wheels you had on your car when you did this upgrade ?

[@bhcamaro2002]

Those are C5 replica wheels

[@justinjones9579]

will this work on 3rd gen F Bodys 87 Camaro

[@LegitStreetCars]

Justin Jones If you upgrade to ls1 front spindles yes. Also run an 18inch wheel or larger

[@325hpls1]

will these also work for the 2010- CTS-V 6 PISTON caliper.

[@LegitStreetCars]

Im not totally sure if those calipers will work with the 14inch 5th gen rotors. I know that when the 5th gen guys upgrade to the 6 piston calipers they usually go with a 2 piece rotor off the zl1 or gen 2 cts v

[@Mattlt1]

Why not just get a set of V rotors? What's the difference? Going to be doing this to mine.

[@bhcamaro2002]

Better fit and wont warp the pads

[@raybusa6086]

By the time you buy all these parts you better buy a baer brakes kit that fit perfect...

[@derekolds6089]

Can you install the rear cts-v calipers as well?

[@bhcamaro2002]

I left mine stock

[@Emelendez707]

arre the break lines necessary or can you use stock ones ?

[@bhcamaro2002]

Best just to do them while you're there, helps with pedal and shorter stopping distances. I'm running this on my SS it's on my channel

[@miguelgutierrez293]

Hi! Where do I buy your coilovers?
