Need Brakes, 7th Gen Part Fitment Question Options

[Fastbird]

Ok, hit the wear indicators on the Celi yesterday, NOT going to drive around listening to squealing for too long. Here's the skinny of what I'm looking at/thinking:

Pads -- Either going to be EBC Redstuff, or Hawk HPS. Whichever I find a better deal on. I've used both brands and trust both, so that's that for that.

Rotors -- Sadly, there's just NOT a good bunch of options out there for the 6GC. Having seen the 7th Gen brake thread though, and knowing that the 7th Gen front rotors are 3mm thinner than the 6GC GT rotors, I'm thinking of popping a decent set of 7th Gen front rotors on the car.

But......

What about the 7th Gen REAR brake rotors??? Are those the same at the 6th Gen GT in terms of diameter and offest?

And.....going to have the calipers and brackets powdercoated red while they're off the car.

Oh I wish I had the cash for a big brake kit upgrade on the front if not both.

red stuff isn't going to be that good for street.....

HPS and some Brembo blanks will be a great setup.
Save your money and stick with 6gc fitment parts. and get some SS brake lines.
They will be sufficient for you. Also don't forget to flush your fluid with some fresh quality brake fluid.

The rotors just slide off. no set screws or anything.
