New Rotors!!!!!!

[Ssiptang]

I have been looking at them as well.
Thinking about doing them as a weekend project with caliper paint.
I heard they make little bit of noise while break-in period, is that right?
If so, how long is usual break-in period?

Thanks

Was there any special tool needed to compress rear calipers. I had to rent a compressor tool for my 04 gt. I am wanting to go this route. Looks great.

Haha just make sure once you get them on to push on the brake BEFORE you start moving the car lol. The calipers weren't flush with the pads yet and I was moving the car back some towards the street.

I was close to pulling out the caliper paint, but just wasn't motivated enough to do it and sit around and wait all day.

They did make noise when coming to a complete stop, but after you bed them in they stop it entirely.

I had one of these bad boys, http://www.amazon.com/Performance-Tool-Disc-Brake-Piston/dp/B0002KO3F6

but ended up renting a tool kit from O'Reilly's because the driver side rear DID NOT WANNA BUDGE!!

Do it!

What are those?

LMAO I actually had a front pair of their rotors on my GT500. They work well for the price but after 4 intense track sessions and i'm talking about circuit track, not drag track, I developed a crack in the passenger side. These work if your not gonna be tracking your car like I did 1320 and everyday driving they will be fine. BTW had them on for almost a year before passenger side cracked.

I think DBA makes a great rotor.. I thought more people would want them, places like STEEDA use them on their kits
