I have front and rear calipers and rotors I could sell you off of a c6 z06. Hawk dtc70 front and dtc60 rear. They are dirty right now but the car had 37k on it when I took them off so they are pretty new. I’d sell them to you for 850 shipped. PM me if interested.

Couple thousand miles. Shipping was pretty high so I gave up on trying to sell if shipping was needed. Hawk ceramic pads

I have rear rotors and calipers off a Z51 - 2007. Will sell with brackets if you need them.

I was told mileage was around 40k, this came off a cradle I bought for my rear swap.

$275 shipped lower 48. Rotors are a bit rusty but may clean up. I'd do $200 shipped for loaded calipers and brackets if you don't want the rotors. Let me know.

Still looking for a full set of Z51 calipers and brackets

Not mine, but there maybe a few pieces/parts here that can help?

A C6 Standard and C6 Z51 caliper are one and the same. Only difference is the caliper bracket and rotor diameter.

C6 base and C6 Z51 front calipers are the same, but the piston size in the rear calipers are different. C6 base rear calipers have 45mm pistons, while the C6 Z51 rear calipers use 42mm pistons. This was done to help keep the front to rear brake bias close to the same with the C6 Z51 as with the C6 base model.

Thanks, John. I knew that about the rear calipers but suffered a little brain fade. Thanks for the correction.

No problem - I didn't mean to come off as being harsh either, its just that most folks have no idea about this subtle difference or even why GM did this. When you think about it, Its sort of counter productive considering the added weight of the larger and 6.0 lbs heavier rear Z51 rotor. Most likely the engineers were concerned with too much rear brake bias during say an over-steer conditions, or the need for unique calibrations for and/or the limitations of the active handling system for the Z51 package.

Also with the rear piston differences between the C6 base and C6 Z51 rear calipers, it can also give you another option to use to help balance/tune the brake bias out with the all the different front BBK options that are out there, without necessarily having to upgrade to say a 4-piston fixed rear caliper like the C6 Z06 or Wilwood calipers with even larger/heavier rear rotors. As always, YMMV.
