Product Description:
1982–1992 Camaro & Firebird Big Brake Upgrade Kit – C7 Z51 4-Piston Calipers with 13.6" Slotted Rotors
Bring modern Corvette stopping power to your 1982–1992 Camaro or Firebird with this Hawks Motorsports Big Brake Upgrade Kit featuring C7 Z51 front brakes. This kit delivers sharp, confident braking using 4-piston aluminum Brembo calipers paired with 13.6" slotted rotors — all engineered to bolt directly to your third-gen F-body using Hawks' proprietary front spindle system and C6/C7 Corvette front hubs.
These lightweight aluminum calipers are available in black, red, or yellow, each featuring the “CORVETTE” script down the side. Combined with GM’s slotted Z51 rotors, this system improves heat dissipation, bite, and fade resistance while preserving everyday drivability.
Unlike many other big brake kits, this one is a true bolt-on with no rotor machining or hub modifications required when using Corvette hubs (recommended). It’s the perfect solution for restomods, performance street builds, or anyone looking to modernize their third-gen's braking without compromising reliability.
