I wanted to supplement my previous comments by stating that I didn't mean to imply the AP kit doesn't serve a purpose on any Camaro.

A car that has been significantly lightened isn't going to produce as much heat under braking. While I could make a really good case that the AP kit's ability to handle heat isn't sufficient for a full weight ZL1, it should be able to handle the heat from a lightened car assuming the car's horsepower is in the realm of stock.

If you have a lightened manual transmission track car and you don't care about stability control or ABS working correctly, then the AP brake kit may start to make more sense. Personally, I still would not want to be locked into only ever using the DS3.12 pads, but to each his own I suppose.
