Can someone please explain to me what f-body and w-body means? I want to get bigger rotors and ceramic pads for my 04+ but I'm uncertain what all this stuff means.
 


f-body brakes- brakes off of a camaro or trans-am (i think only 98-up and LS1, I can be wrong)
w-body brakes- pretty self explanatory, you have a w-body car with w-body brakes.

F-body brakes refer to the specific brakes that came on the LS1 f-bodies (Camaros and Firebirds). If you don't know what an f-body is, you can read here:

W-body brakes refer to the brakes you already have. There are 11" versions and 12" versions, depending on what w-body you're talking about. For more info on what a W-body is (like your GP), then read here:
