Let's put it this way, guys ended up with brakes considerably LESS effective than stock C3 by just throwing on a set of C5 calipers. That's what I remember.
Doesn't Wildwood make a complete C3 brake system now, allowing for 15" rotors, etc. ? I know there was another company that made a whole custom system, and this was like ten years ago now, that was shit hot, but it was like $5k by the time you were done. I think it included new hubs and everything.

My fam over at R1 concepts now has a modular design brake system and can be fitted to any vehicle, I think the front is about $2X00 for a two piece rotor and 6 piston caliper.
