Anyone running DBA 4000xs rotors on their G coupe?

 

Yes .. I am ... along with Hawk HPS all around. You looking for some info?

 

Even if he isn't, I am. Info it up

 

I can't really offer any experience with them, but I can say this based on what I know and have heard from owners. DBA makes some seriously high quality stuff and then they add cool features like temperature marks for monitoring thermal performance if you care about that sort of thing. The materials they use and the kagaroo-paw style cooling vanes all work together to assist with proper heat dissapation and warp-prevention. All and all, there should be no question that DBA is worth buying...other than price.

I would only buy the DBA stuff if I cared about that extra 1/10th of second I might gain, if I cared what everyone thought about my car and the parts I put on it or if I found a good deal on them.

So if you aren't racing or whatever, I would just save my money and get some Centric slotted rotors if you want something racey looking but still good quality.

Also, do some research on the pads, they are a bit more important. The Hawk HPS aren't that great and better performing pads can be found for better prices. I would only suggest the HPS pads for people who want the least amount of dusting and that will come with a loss of braking performance. StopTech Street Performance, EBC yellow stuff or green stuff, Akebono Pro ACT are all great compounds with better than OEM dusting and equal or better track performance.
