How is the braking power comparing to the stock brake pads? I was planning to buy the same.

Braking power is just as good as the stock brembos. Ive read if you track your car braking isn't as good. I don't track my car but I've gotten it well over 100 miles an hour and these pads stop just as good. No complaints.

Thanks. I only tracked the car once and I don't think I will do it again. So I am buying the Z26's as well. They sell at a great price.

You can get pads and rotors for all 4 corners for less than $400. I did it a few months back and the brake dust problem is almost gone.

I put the PowerStop Z26 pads on my 2SS, I'd say braking power is a touch less than the stock pads but the dust is about 95% LESS!!!

One of the guys that works for me has a C7 Z51 and we put the same pads on his and he loves them as well (he had major dust issues before, his car has the identical brakes as my 2020 2SS).

Overall, I'm happy with them...

Thanks. I just wonder if they last as long as the stock Brembo ones.

I'm going to guess they are harder pads so will likely last longer...

Thanks man. I don't see many yellow camaro's on here. I love it. Literally everywhere I go I get compliments even when I'm driving on the highway I get thumbs up all the time. I personally think pictures don't do it justice, it looks better in person. Not taking away from other camaros. There are some pretty nice ones on here.

Your car... looks... awful. I'm kidding! . It looks great. That's the only hood I've considered getting over the stock SS one.

I was going to put the copo hood on with the higher cowl, I'm glad I didn't. The cowl would have definitely been too high. After I put this hood on, I hopped in the car and said oh shit I can't see in front of me lol. After taking it out on the road it wasn't bad at all.
