MPracing brake kit

anybody have this kit or heard anything about it? Will these clear my 16in stock rims?

My guess is they wont fit seeing how it say minimum wheel size is 17.

My guess is they will fit if you still have the "Nicest 18's on Aleromod"

Altho, seeing as you have ur stockers on for winter, you might be SOL

Nope, you need to have 17" wheels or larger -the calipers are too big to fit under stock 16s.
He has another kit with 12" rotors and Camaro calipers that will fit under stock 16" alloys.

LOL....wow....totally overlooked that....

i have 17s now though;)

just do a camaro swap up front, i can fit 16s with them

camaro brackets....these will work right?

$750 for just the front. I paid just under $500 for all 4 corners.

Camaro Calipers with Impala rotors in the front and entire Grand Prix GXP set-up in the rear

i need those brackets though right?

No, you don't want to use those.
Those are to retrofit C5 Corvette brakes to a 4th-gen F-body, and require modification to the spindle.
What you want is the normal 4th-gen F-body abutment brackets (anchors).
They bolt directly in place of our stock stuff.

Look here:

$250 plus your choice of rotors and you're done.

This is a nice kit i just installed them 2 months ago and everything works great

"F" body brackets 98-02 is what you need. You can get them at Autozone, or buy the complete caliper with bracket from places like Rock Auto ;)

Cool. Thanks Matt! It says it might fit 16s......u think these will fit with the stock 16s??? they dont look that much bigger....

No problem.
Factory Alero 16" alloys (both styles) have been tested by others and are known to fit.

what size wheels? I got 19's I was thinking of getting this kit as well, but if you know of something better, by all means share it for all...

reg GP rotors will fit the front also, Aurora and many other full size GM vehicles that were FWD will be the same part # as those impala ones so double check on pricing while your out there because I know some companies will charge a difference even tho its the same part # the different model car they think they can get more money and they do

I thought it was a Grand Prix GTP, not GXP. I might be wrong though.

from what i learned after calling and asking a few auto suppliers all grand prix rear brake setups are the same...

i could be wrong

Sweeeet. im def ordering this tomorrow but first i wanna find out where i can get some stainless steel brake lines.... since this kit doesnt come with them.

these should do..... right?

The GXP is a 12 inch rotor. IDK if the GTP is a 10.6 inch or 12 ;)

While they look right, the fronts will work but the backs are wrong in that kit..

JW....how can you tell the fronts will work and backs wont? i just wanted to do the front anyways.....but im curious as to how u know the backs wont work..... i just wanna make sure i dont run into any problems when it comes time to put these on.....i wanna make sure i have all the right stuff.

Go straight to Goodridge for proper stainless lines. GM uses odd sized connections...

The only well to really tell (since that picture is just a representation and not the actual part) is to make sure they are long enough (I dont' recall how long the lines are) but the caliper-side fitting is a M10x1.0 banjo bolt and the opposite fitting (which attaches to the hard line) is a M10x1.0 ISO bubble flare.

You guys are awesome. I'm gonna check into this and see what i can find. Thank you:coolio:

Because i have that set, and the fronts are identical between the J and N body cars. But the rears on the J-Body are different and are what is in this kit. They're like 6" long hoses with female ends on both sides.

99-04 grand am kit it is.... any miscellaneous parts i may need?

bump

Those will work fine.

I just got the brakes today. It came with the calipers and rotors....but do i need brackets to mount these calipers? cause it didnt come with any...... and these calipers are SIGNIFICANTLY bigger than the stock ones:lol: Please....anybody who knows help me ASAP cause these things gotta go on ruby ASAP. Thank you

ya i have the same kit and it came with brackets so it should have them

did you buy the cheaper kit? I got the $230 one.....i guess i had to get the more expensive kit for the brackets huh?

this is the one i got....

probably should have read a little better before ordering....now i see it says "base kit".....so how should i go about getting brackets? The customer service isnt too good cause i called 3 times, left voicemails and emailed once and never got anything back. I thought the order didnt go through cause it took forever to get these (over a week). So now im worried cause i need these brackets and i never got a hold of anybody all the times i contacted them.

So just to get everything clear....all i need is brackets now right? nothing else? I already have stainless steel lines so those dont matter. just brackets...right?

right on the site it lists the components...

The base kit includes:
- 1 Pair of Dual Piston Calipers
- 1 Pair of Caliper Brackets
- All hardware for needed for installation
- 1 Set of Ceramic Pads
- 1 Optional Pair of OEM Style rotors


I'd think they should have been included

thats the same one i got so you should have brakets

LOL....wow.....i FAIL. So i did read everything right! I totally passed over that before.

I emailed them about it....hopefully they get back to me soon. Brackets weren't in the box so idk. Just hope they get shipped here fast cause i need to bring my car in to get the struts/springs/and urethane bushings put in before i head back to ohio and i cant drive it to my mechanic until i have brakes! lol

On the rear GXP calipers what year of GXP will work for the conversion?
