quick question. Does it matter, on slotted rotors, how the slots face? I notice some face forward and some backwards.

 

^ I've wondered that as well

 

No; to which way the slots face it has to do with the internal veins of the rotor. I am like 90% sure so no sueing me if I am wrong.

You want the vains of the rotor to go forward catching the air.

 

Are you talking about the slots or the vents?

If the vents face forward then it will catch the which forces the the hot air to exit to the middle of the rotor which will eventually heat up the center of the rotor. But if you face the vent backward then a vacum effect will take place a suck the hot air out.

I'm not trying to argue, I just think that is what's going to happen. I'm also puzzled on which way the slot should face. But it does look hella cool when it face forward.

 

All the pictures that I've seen, Alcon calipers are sown in red. Where can you get the silver? Thanks in advance

 

they come in silver, from stasis engineer
u can request to get them painted red

 

here's mine. Rotora Big brakes all around. info here: http://www.bursethracing.com/product...2/84/sfID3/314

 

So they naturally come in silver ... I like it better silver

^What brand are those?

 

they look like rotora

 

What I put in a year ago or so.





How they look now.




Sorry, need to get some straight on shots.

 

RacingBrake... although we're pretty sure that "cracking" is more pad buildup or etching. I'll find out more tonight when I strip it down.

Seems from doing a lot of reading, that the RacingBrake rotors may not be as good as I originally thought. We'll see though.

 

dam where can I get those PMU 2 piece slotted dimpled rotors? anyone know who carries them?
