Rotora CHROME 14" big brake kit BBK
SOLD
This is the hardest part I had to let go of... my sexy Rotora brakes. Got them brand new in January, so I have all the original boxes and manuals. They have approximately 8k miles on them and look absolutely stunning. Will make any G, modded or not, stand out and look great!
Reason I'm selling the brakes? Don't have the funds to keep them. First, I still owe money for them on my CC. Second, the front rotors are warped and I don't have the money to replace them at the moment AND pay off the CC.
About the warped rotors: it happened about 1k miles into having the brakes. I put on G37 rims with regular lug nuts and the wheels got loose while driving. By the time I got to my mechanic, the whole car was shaking. I bought the correct lugs and after that, the brakes were not the same. I think they got warped because there was no pressure holding the rotor against the hub. I think only the fronts got warped, but I'm not 100% sure. Now to replace each rotor disc is about $270 and pads are another $150-200. Another cheaper alternative would be to get 1-piece rotors from Rotora or Stoptech (355mm x 32mm).
This is why I'm asking a low price of $2500!
Included:
6-piston front calipers
4-piston rear calipers
14" rotors all around
NEW stainless steel lines (not Rotora)
Original boxes and manuals
Random extra bolts and washers
They will bolt right up to 03-06 G35 sedans, coupes, and 350z. They will also work (if you change the front adapter) with 07+ G35 sedan, G37 coupes and sedans.

great deal but to replace the rotors and pads are not cheap..I have an extra set of pads for BBK laying around and they cost freaking 500 dollars for a full set.

By turning I'm assuming you mean re-surface. In that case, you're guna have a hard time finding a place that will do it on rotors with cross drills..I had to replace my front stoptech rotors and they are not cheap to say the least.

Yup, this is a good deal obviously on a beautiful set of brakes, but you have to drop a fair amount more money to turn this into a usable kit.
