Who makes rotors for the 05-06 revised brakes?

I have seen tons of aftermarket rotors in slotted/drilled for the regular 02-04 G35 (& 05 G35x) setup and the brembo setup. But I havent seen any for the revised larger 05-06 G35 brakes (and 06 G35x & 350Z). Someone must make aftermarket rotors.

No one? There must be 50 vendors for the 02-04 smaller rotors and Brembo package.

I know racingbrake has 05-06 specific rotors. I also saw rotors listed on the stoptech website when you input your vehicle info. -I would check with stoptech (PM him, he is a member here) to be sure that those rotors will work, because they do not specifically state that they are for the 05-06 setup.

Don't you have an 05 X? I thought they retained the 03/04 brakes.

yes I do. And yes they do. So I want to get rid of them as soon as I can find a replacement set off a 05-06 RWD. They will work much better (and look better under the wheels I got from you). Actually I should seriously start looking for tires before winter comes first, my brakes turn the front rims black in barely a week.

I would just get a set of replacement rotors for your existing setup and some new pads. Or am I missing something here?

Yet there are only 7 cast iron casters in the world that do rotors, Most are in China and supply the finished or unfinished blanks.

Anyone can order rotors, just supply specs and a 2,500 minimum order [44' container full] at say $15-$18 [oem copy] each FOB China. 60 days later unload your rotors in California.

So group buy then?

I still cant believe that that more VENDORS (not manufacturers) dont list the 05-06 larger rotors.

I would rather replace everything with an 05-06 RWD setup then just do the rotors & pads. Time to find a wreck or someone going with a BBK and get their parts.
