Is the Z06 hub the same as on the standard issue C5? I would like to use Z06 rotor and caliper on the C5 Hub.

Based on what I've read here (and in magazines) numerous times, there is no difference in the hubs/calipers/rotors between the Z06 and standard C5 except for the Z06's calipers being painted red. Having said that, you could simply paint your calipers or save the time of painting and just swap them with factory red calipers.

Hubs are the same. Like said above, red color is the only difference. The Z06 did have rear cooling ducts, which can also be added to the coupe.
