I'd reccomend gicing the Stazi rotors/pads a try. I haven't hear anything bad about them...kinda wish I bought them instead of the KVR's.



you lost me here...i was under the impression that the later csvts used the same front calipar that all contiques used up front??? they just had a larger mounting bracket to clear the larger rotor, am i wrong?? if so this whole time i've been thinking that all i need is the calipar bracket off of one of those cars, and that it would work with my 96 se front calipars.....



Yes the later(newer) csvts used the same caliper as non- csvts but used a bracket that had more offset to clear the larger rotors. No you where correct there. I don't think your 96 se calipers will work.....like I said before when looking at the backside of the calipers is the piston housing finned? I know the csvts came with 2 different types of calipers the older(early98 EO) and the newer(98+ E1)

Does that make anymore sense
