I'm glad you're enjoying your kit on your 3G, thanks for the compliment.
if all this is as advertised like those 350 rotors. i'm in. this is EXACTLY what i've been waiting for. the great, light, unfadable stoptech performance WHILE using your stock brembo calipers. 550 for the fronts IS cheap ESPECIALLY for the performance you're getting and the WEIGHT you're saving.

i guess more info would just entice more. the info on the rotor replacement price would be cool and maybe the recommended pad for the application... same as bbk?

this would be totally the best setup for someone that is not gonna run 275 hoosiers at the track. no fuss with balance (although there's no fuss with stoptech's bbks anyway) and it's just bolt right in there... no worries about shaving pads (retrofitted ap rotors), no worries about proprietary shape pads (gyrodisc) no worries about fading even tho they're so light (stasis), full float with no rattling i'm assuming which would be better than baer's offering (non float). and they come with the best gas evacuation design (slotted) cuz pf's offerings are those weird pockets that HOLD the gas in rather than expel it, it prolly works but to me... it's good ol slotting that is still best in the book. and this all comes at a price less than those jdm rotors that are proven to perform well PLUS they're lighter.

i can't think of a way to pitch this anymore... i hope you guys make them.

yes... and no worries about getting bigger wheels to cover all 4 corners... and if they made rears too... it'd all MATCH... can you think of anything BETTER???

I know! I just purchased the OEM replacement slotted rotors. If they had 2-piece i would have jumped on that like flies on shat.

I replaced the Rotors on my 3G Stoptech BBK and i only paid $320 @ RRE for both fronts, you reuse the aluminum Hat and swap in the new Rotor also takes about an hour and a half to get it all done. Once you go AeroRotors you'll know why the best choose Stoptech.

Also would this be kit a 4 corner replacement kit?

This is what stock calipers (with stock rotors) look like when the rotors don't cool everything down quick enough. Later in the race on Turn 2 he had Brake Fade and went off course. (The Muellerized Kent Jordan's Car after Laguna Seca SCCA race) Next Event they had Stoptech BBKs (with AeroRotors) and they took First!

uhm... i think you're missing the point... the stoptech ones are bar THE best. aerorotor technology makes the lightest rotor that evacuates heat the best. no other company will be able to make a comprible substitute. which is why we need the real mckoy. once again... i really hope stoptech makes these.

i do have to wonder tho... is the tooling and such that different from the g35 rotors and what not? or the 350 rotors or the sti rotors... they're all using the same brembo series off the ferrari right?

Do you keep ABS with this rotor? I would be interested in these too if you do. If you don't get to keep ABS then I would rather get the big brake kit.

Didn't Buschur put the Stoptech big brake kit on his shop Evo for the C n D Fast Four?

yes but his absless rs was the problem... not heat of fade... prolly not even traction... cuz the kd's are badass tires. it was all the lack of abs.

the rotors are direct replacement... abs would not be affected... nor would the balance.

Scratch what I said, Buschur used a set of Endless/HKS setup for his brakes at the Fast Four. He just mentioned that Stoptech was their and helped him with something.

uhm.... really? thot he said he had the stoptech front kit and it ran outta balance in the back... so they told him to change pads.... weird...

anyway... the stopping or clamping power is not any different from the bbks to the stock brembos... either have enough to lock the wheels even with 275 hoosiers if you're running an agressive pad. that's not the issue... the issue is how much heat cycling and how much weight you can get away with. nothing beats stoptech in that arena.

Bump for both Front and Rear 2pc replacement rotors
If you are interseted we have a company making three kits.
One replacment, then big break kit and a 2 piece kit all the way around.
If you would like info please pm me. I do not want to give out the name of the well known company because they are making them in our name.

Sorry for the thread jack.
