Default ??? about Calipers and pads

I have an 05 with z51, so what I would like to know are the 04
and 05 calipers the same size. And if so then the 04 Z06 pads will
fit my z51 calipers is that right.

every C5 and C6 (except C5 Z06) have the same calipers. The rotors and caliper brackets vary on C6 Z51, but they all still have the same, 2-piston calipers. Ditton on the pads

Was that a typo? Did you mean "except C6 Z06"? Or is the C5 Z also different than the C5 & C6?

Yep, that's a typo. All C5 calipers are the same (except for the pretty red paint).

Have a good one,
Mike
