C5/ZO6 brakes on an early 4th gen?

I can get a discount on stock brake parts so I was wondering if an upgrade to the C5/ZO6 braking system would be worth the money on a 95 Z28 Vert? Will doing this mod increase my stopping power a lot or will the difference be small? Also besides pads, rotors, and calipers would their be anything else I would need to buy to do this?

Thanks for the help.

archemedes street rep is low. keep going

might as well do an aftermarket system the cost would probably be about the same, but most are based on vette parts (just slightly upgraded)

I have all three, but you'll probably want to buy new pads. Rotors and Calipers all have approx. 33000 miles on them.

The front rotors will probably need to be turned as well.

Give me a little bit to see what they are worth...

By the way, I'll have to get them to you when I go back to FL in April... and since I'll be up in the LA area it might be worth it for you just to meet me there to pick them up.
