I second this request, I'm looking for a way to put 12" Corvette brakes on my '86 SE and I need to know what parts I'll need and what is required for installation. And unlike DOHC_SWAPPER, I'm a novice mechanic, I'm not a know-it-all asshat, so I could use some details on this mod.

OMG you guys. The HUGE thread with ALL the info has been bumped yet again in TECH. Look there!

Tintin....watch it or ill NEG your ASS! lol!

A simple parts list was all im looking for... easier then scanning an entire thread.

Plus its more clear info then too.

The parts are all in the thread. Read all replies and you'll know what you are getting involved in. Its actually quite expensive if you use quality new parts.

From what i gathered if the part numbers i think i have are correct then its about 600$ which is probably still cheaper then taking it to a shop and having stock brakes installed.

These brackets allow 1985 Corvette front calipers to fit on the front, and 1988-96 Corvette rear calipers to fit the rear. Use '88 Corvette rotors for front and back.

Please read the topics on the brake swap to understand the scope of the project. I did mine for about $400 total, but I made my own brackets and rings, and got the calipers for a good deal from a yard. I also did the work on the front spindles myself. My rotors cost a bit, so one could save on that slightly. Buy a new MC, as it is inexpensive, and new pads (of course). Lots of brake fluid also, as it would be wise to flush the entire lines out while doign the swap. My Fiero is a second car, so I took my time on it.

Remember, cutting of the stock spindles is part of the swap. So no going back, unless one bought new spindles. Is it worth it? YES! Just make sure for yourself. The car brakes hard. No rear lockup, just straight and quick braking. I would never go back.

Plus they look great with my rims.

Awesome, thanks Cheetah!

Thanks for the info.... i was looking for a just straight answer and you provided it and more!! + 4 U

BUMP, Wondering if you have any left for sale? I would like to get a set if you do.

They will be available again soon. I am accepting payments, and they will ship out as soon as they are done.

Recieved both adapter kits, top notch! Thanks Cheetah!

by the way, do you know the bolts you used off the top of your head?

Thanks

Can anyone tell me what the missing dimension on the rear adapters is? Everything is incremental off the ends, it's not symetrical, and no overall length is given. I'm having a set made out of 304 stainless. Also, how can I tell if my rotors need twice as thick rings? Are the rings simply twice as thick, or is the clearance chamfer deeper as well?

I drilled and tapped those holes to the M-12 x 1.5mm. That keeps everything the same throughtout the brake system (no oddball size bolt). Thanks for bringing up the question, I will have to add the info to the webpage.

And thanks for the kind words.

I just got more rear brackets in, so the few remaining open orders will be shipping this week. Also, and I am able to ship out more if anyone else is interested since I made more so I can keep them in stock.

Update: the entire group buy was shipped out, and the last of the "after group buy" orders are done also.

That leaves me with (5) sets of the brackets left. I have Aluminum rings sets left also.

After these, I will not be ordering them again for a while, so I wanted to see if anyone wanted one of the remaining sets. If so, go to:

Thanks to everyone who got in, and lets make some more Fiero's stop that way that they should.

Paul,

I emailed you the 13th and 14th of this month and got my payment in PayPal on the 14th. I didn't see this thread until tonight though. Am I getting the aluminum brackets and rings I ordered from your website? I've tried to email you but did not receive a response from you yet. Please advise of the status of my order?

Thanks, Bob

Anyone heard from Cheetah (Paul) ?? I placed and order a while back on his website, all paid for, and have heard nothing !!! Are we getting ripped off?

This is the reason I never placed an order with him. I emailed three times inquiring about the brackets and such. But only got one response back, and that was like a week or so later. I got an uneasy feeling about it and never followed up. I'm sorry about you losing your money you'd think he would atleast drop you a line or something...-Jason

ive e-mailed a few times and havent heard from em
if you used paypal
open a dispute
i think you can do so within 90 days
just state "item not recived" and it should refund your money

I just ordered a set about a week ago. I have not gotten any response. I wasn't really worried.
Maybe I should look into it. I'm not gonna stress over a couple hunded bucks since I can dispute it with Paypal.

JUst checked I paid CC so either way I can dispute.
Rather just get the parts... Their web site says they are going to a big show in Chicago soon so they are active maybe just real busy.

bump in case Cheetah shows up

Bump because damn it.
CHeeta Cheeta come in Cheeta

Got an email from Cheetah yesterday. Parts are shipping mid-week. Stay tuned......

Thats great news. Hope mine are coming too!!!!!

Actually I did pay pay pal. I buy to much stuff I can't keep it straight.
Their web site email doesn't link. Pay pal has their email so I sent them an inquiry.
I believe I have 30 days to dispute charges and 30 days is almost here so I hope they get back to me. I will be waiting and hoping everything is OK.

I bought some brackets and rings from Cheetah and it took like 3 months to get them and they didn't fit. The holes where like 3/8 of and inch off on the rears. And the fronts where the wrong thickness and rubbed the rotor. The rings needed to be turned down to fit in to rotor. I tired to contact cheetah about 5 times with no replay to the problem. I never got a refund or any reply. I had to remake all of the stuff myself which took quite a while.
