I will do a write up on this once I fit everything onto my car, but this is the brake upgrade I have but here is a tip you can buy all this stuff for way cheaper on ebay or even right from a dealership.

Haha nope a Cts-V , looking back I wish I got the 6 pot calipers instead of the 4 pots. They both use the same mounts so it's completely interchangeable but the rotor size may be different . I know with the 4 pots you can use the 350z track rotors. They would need to be RE drilled to a 4 log though .

The 4 pots will be more than capable I can assure you of that.

This set up doesn't actually cost that much , so far I already have everything in the link besides my rotors and I'm sitting at 280$ Canadian $ and rotors are only another 300$ for good ones I could go cheap and get for like 100$ but I'd rather do it right. Honestly not sure how these guys are selling these kits when they sell so cheap already from the dealership lol .

You wonder if those CTSV calipers are the same as something we would have on a similar age HSV/SS?

Even if this is the case, anyone here in OZ will want a crap load for HSV calipers...

Here are the OEM  AC Delco part numbers for the calipers 

 

front left : 1722287

front right:  1722288

 

That should make finding the calipers a bit easier!
