OK, maybe someone can confirm some of the details concerning which parts were used by ZZP to create the ZZP Big Brake Kit for the Sonic.
Calipers/Pads: 1998-2002 Camaro
Rotors: 2008 HHR SS Non-Brembo (11.7"?)
The Power Stop 17-749 brake pads say both "HHR (Non-Brembo)" and also "F-body Dual Piston" on the box, and the two bolt patterns on the rotors are 5x105 and 5x110mm. 5x110 was never used on the Camaro but was standard for the 2008 HHR (at least, probably other years too, but that year was the first to have the SS moniker). I'm measuring ~298mm rotors from ZZP with 30mm thick... The HHR are supposedly 26mm thick.
A while back I had a torn pad clip and emailed ZZP, they confirmed the pads were from a "00-02 F-Body" but that's all they'd say (I was broke down on jack stands until I could buy some clips from the local parts store so I seriously needed the info... of course they urged me to buy the clips on their website AFTER telling them I was stranded... *rolls eyes*).
Can anyone confirm the details? One of my rotors had a sticker on it that said F-body, so for a long time I thought the rotors were from a Camaro, but measuring the Bolt Pattern suggested otherwise.
I'm trying to piece together a nicer front brake setup, so knowing where the base parts come from is a tremendously useful tool to have. I'd like to go with a caliper that you can swap pads out of easily and I'd love to have some 2 piece rotors for the weight savings.
Hopefully someone in a Chevy Service Parts position can confirm some info perhaps
