Help with rotors

Tried searching but could not find any helpful info, i have an 05 g35 sedan. In 06 I installed a wilwood bbk, 4 piston with a 13.25 inch by 1.1 inch rotor. I now need new rotors. I called wilwood and they said they don't make a 13.25 inch rotor. Does any one know where I can get the rotors?

Have you tried looking for a name on the edge of the rotor, that's where they put it most of the time. Most likely someone "married" the rotor and calipers together as a "kit", the rotors may be a different brand.

It is possible that it was a Wilwood put together kit. This is where someone makes a rando Wilwood caliper fit on a stock size rotor. According to the sizes you listed, that is not a stock rotor for your vehicle, but it could be from a different vehicle.

Look for any kind of information on the edge of the rotor, manufacturer, sizes, p/n anything.

You installed a BRAND X kit using Wilwood calipers. Not a Wilwood kit. Start by calling the company that made it. That's if they are still around of course. There are no 13.25" Wilwood rotors in any width. If you strike out shoot me a pm and I'll try to help you out.

How about going the other way? Go from the caliper model you have then finding which rotor normally goes with it.

You don't get it.

Somebody made a kit using a WW caliper and 'some other' rotor.

So you have to find out who chose what 'other rotor' and get a replacement.

It is most likely a Coleman rotor as they are the most common/easiest to get made.

And even if not - with proper measuring there is likely a Coleman rotor that can be spec'd
