They are C5. All C5 had the same brake hardware, the only difference between them all were cosmetic (the Z06's being powder coated red).

The other picture is from a C6

MY SINCERE APPOLOGIES TO JAMACK.  :-[ :-[ :-[  MY MISTAKE!  My picture was of the racing caliper.

Looks like C-5 calipers.  They were also put on the Z06 powder coated according to some sources.  They allow 13" diameter rotors to be used.  Jim

If I'm not mistaken, those are C4 corvette floating calipers. Not Z06 fixed calipers.

CORVETTE BRAKE CALIBERS

Brand new complete set fron and rear brake calibers (Z06), I had the raised corvette wording machined off and re painted, these are new and includes a set of adapters (grey parts in pic) that cost 150.00 alone, these calibers will allow you to use larger rotors upto 1.25 inch thick..
