Default Dilusi Stage III Front Brake Package

Does anybody have this package? Does anybody have this package on a ZO6? I am looking to purchase the Stage III front brake package and was wondering if anybody had any good/bad experiences with the performance, reliability, and installation. I can see this package offering gains for normal C5's, but Z06's already come with PBR's race quality calipers. I am a little suspicious, only because I have never seen a SIX piston caliper set for under 6k? And it's rare for these type of racing calipers to fit under stock rims. I just want to see if anybody has realworld experience.

Can't comment on the package, but my understanding was that the Z06 calipers were mechanically the same as C5s - just red....

I have the Stage III on the front



And the rear







The centers clean up with brake cleaner and dont have the ring around them anymore.

I have had them since May and I like the system very much. This brake system will work with the Z06 wheels and a small spacer in the front. :yesnod:

BTW the Z06 calipers are the same as any other C5 ... just red. :cheers:

I am interested in the stage III systems for both front and rear as well. Could you guys give me an idea of what the cost was? Any track experience with them?

I got in the only GP that I was aware of last May... $4100 front and rear with 2 sets of pads. With the Racing Pads on the car, it stops like a son of a gun all day long.

LGM has a six piston Wildwood Front package. Under 1500. I have it. It fits on stock Z06 rims without any mods and looks great.

Call me crazy but I want a set on the rear too. Even if it's mostly for looks. LGM was going to do something with a kit for the rear too, I thought. I'll try to find out.

If I was going to do it all over again I would have picked up the Stage 4 Dilusi package. IMO it is better than the stage III.
