What brake upgrades are available. (crossover stock components or aftermarket) for the GN? Has anyone had success with rear brake conversions? Any info appreciated.:confused:
 
for a cheap upgrade on the fronts is to switch to b-body brakes, they come off of caprices cop cars etc, you will need upper control arm spindle and calipers, brake and rotors can be bought later. for the rear ive seen people use setups from corvettes late 90s style, very easy setup but you will need to upgrade your proportioning valve to a disc to disc setup.
 
Just finished doing the LS1 rear swap (had the fronts on for about a year), really easy to do. Removed stock prop. valve, ran lines straight to the fronts from mc, put an adjustable prop valve going to the rear, and so far no problems. I have vac assisted brakes, not power master.
Main mod for the rears was making adapters from the stock cables to the LS1 e-brake bracket and making a bracket to hold the e-brake cables.
