Just got tracking # for my C6 Z06 kit. They still have the price up for C5 and C6 Z06's, but yes, it is now showing out of stock.

I just changed rotors and pads but I bought them because I just couldn't pass on that deal. I just received a tracking number before lunch.

Here's a question I asked last night on the Advance site:

"How do I know the exact part number for my 2013 Grand Sport Corvette. There seems to be (2) different P/N's listed: K1445 and K1445-26.

And here's the response I received from Advance this AM.

Solomon from AAP said:

"The Power Stop Brake Kit - Part #K1445 is a Z23 Evolution Sport Performance 1-Click Brake Kit, whereas the Power Stop Brake Kit - Part #K1445-26 is a Z26 Street Warrior 1-Click Brake Kit. Z23 and Z26 use the same friction material in the pad itself. They are both low dusting and will dust the same amount as they are the same friction material. Backing plate shim on Z23 is rubberized and backing plate shim on Z26 is stainless steel. The Z26 pad will tolerate higher heat due to the SS backing plate. Both pads are low noise but I would suspect that the Z23 may be even better in the noise department due to the rubberized shim (just a guess here)."

I probably wont need them for a few more years but went ahead and bought a set. Hard to pass on that deal.

PS: I got my shipping confirmation yesterday and just checked the link to the kit to see if it said out of stock. It didn't say out of stock but the price listed is now 673.00

Great Info, I wish it was more clear up front. Luckily i got the z26 pads, which would be the ones I would want.

I ordered two, one with the 15% off because the 30 didn’t work and another with the new 30% discount. I tried canceling the first order that was 162.00 shipped and the lady put it in but it says shipped. She said I can take it back to the store for a refund. The other one hasn’t even shipped yet and they were ordered about 40 minutes apart from each other. I looked today and the new price is 679.99. Saved almost 500.00 bucks.

I just checked out the advance site today & my brake/rotor kit is now $497.00 after the 20% discount. I think that someone screwed up with those prices yesterday & changed them today? I'm glad that I bought a kit even though I don't need brakes at this time!

Thanks to the OP for this! I paid $142.01 for the K1445-26 after discounts, and before 5% cashback.

I just got my shipping confirmation. I then checked the site to see if the price had changed. They are now $673.99 before discounts.

Ho-lee-crap.

I'm still waiting on my tracking number. I got confirmation on the order pretty quickly, but not as quick on the tracking number like everyone else.

I'm waiting for shipping confirmation number too. Base set is now 500 too. At least we got in under the wire. That deal was so good my wife said BUY BUY BUY. I guess when a couple of dozen people order the same product in two days it throws up a red flag...lol

its usually.. when someone contacts them about it.. that's when they say.. "sheet, we put our cost on there instead of selling price"!

I got one set today but the other set hasn’t shipped yet. They were bought within hrs of each other. Hoping the other ships soon so I can return the more expensive one.
