Default FS: J55 Grand Sport Calipers, brackets, stainless lines!! --UPDATED--

--UPDATE--


I know it's hard to believe, but somebody backed out on a deal so all of this is back up for sale.

$330 shipped for the whole lot. Or will separate for the prices listed in red below.

I went with a new setup on my 96 track car and now have these for sale. Want to upgrade your C4 to a J55 setup with the Corvette lettered Grand Sport calipers?? This will do just that. Add rotors and pads and you are good to go with an awesome setup.

--NEW RULE-- if you are interested post it here so it is clear who is first to want something. When I see payment, the listing comes down. Lesson learned the hard way last time. The prices listed are how much I will take. The last 4-5 sets to sell on here have gone for more than these are listed for.


-- 1996 Grand Sport calipers. They have very few miles on them and are in very good condition and 100% perfect working order with a rebuild last year. They do NOT have dust boots as they came off of my track car. $220





-- J55 Brackets. They are in 100% perfect condition (used). They are somewhat dirty in the pics but perfect to use for your J55 upgrade. $90



-- Goodridge stainless FRONT lines. Again, a little dirty, but 100% perfect working order when I took them off. They have very few miles on them like the rest of these parts. $70

Hi,

I am interested in the calipers.......but need to do some research first.

I think these are an upgrade to my 89 J55 calipers, while still bolting to my brackets and will fit behind the sawblade rims.

I am looking to minimize the pad taper I get with the 89 calipers.

Can you confirm these will work??

ps: these are listed on Napaonline for $82 reman each, so if these will work I'd offer $125 plus shipping for the pair.

They bolt on to 88-96 cars BUT you need the J55 brackets listed above because the J55 rotor is 13" v 12" so the caliper sits further out. J55 rotor is also thicker;
28mm v 20mm 12"

I believe you will find that is for regular J55 calipers ; not the GS ones above with Corvette logo
http://www.superchevyperformance.com...4calipers.html
on the price as posted above and as also stated you will need a 13 inch rotor. Will they fit behind sawblades yes. These were standard equipment on the ZR-1 as the J55 heavy duty brake open. The GS calipers are still J55s but the difference was the logo for 96 only on the GS and 96 CE corvettes.

I checked the times that messages were sent/posted. I got a pm prior to your post about the whole package. He is waiting on a shipping quote (today). If he says no, you are next in line. I will let you know ASAP.
