| Re: GTO Brake SWAP LOG. The catera hoses are a few inches short and they seemd to get too stretched when the wheel reaches the end position so I went with the GTO hose which I think was 2" longer and also the Catera bolts will work and it should bolt right up... I used the stuff from the Caliper set... bolts, hose, etc... just get a new set of crush washers for those Banjo bolts.. And as to the brake pads you can either use the 04 pads or you can try the 05-06 pads and then if thats not enough for ya you can try the Corvette C5 brake pads as those have nearly twice the surface area of the OEM ones...
You can get a set of those off ebay.. and the C5s I think went from 1997 up to 2006 or something...
The pictures you got posted look almost exact as the ones I used... just make sure that the outside pad has that retaining clip that keeps it attached to the caliper otherwise I hear that they rattle... hope this helps... if you got more questions please ask... |
