Z06 Brake calipers question
Does any body know if the Z06 calipers are out already for sale? I saw some for sale already.

I Think that the Ebay Auction you are referring to is the one that lists the Z06 Brake Rotors.
That same auction also talks about the calipers being availiable. Read into the auction this guy states that the Front Z06 Calipers are $535?????????
Um...........I'll Take 300- Sets!!!

Yes, the rotors are available and we have them in stock. The major part being the calipers and pads are not available yet. I'm working on it.

I heard pads are still in QA and not released for manufacture yet?
