That's a huge bich! Looks similar to mine though. Depending what you spent on them and what you think you can get, if you're only into them for a couple bucks, I'd stay with them.

I'm using evo ix rotors (same diam as g35 brembos but diff offset), but only until the evo x rotors are available cheap. The g/z brembos are too small and look silly under 19"+ wheels. The 14" akebonos might work well with those calipers, but like mine, the offset of the rotor is too + and makes for a more complicated bracket. Still easily doable, just not cheap enough for me.

When I get a set of evo x rotors, send me a caliper and I'll make. Bracket for your calipers.

I wish it was! I'm terrible with names and can't remember his name. I was there, but the DG Sedan is mine.

Think i may have ruined a set of rotors today. I was going to slot them sometime this week, when a machinist i use said he'd do it for me. He's retired, works super cheap and is a incredible machinist so i say sure.

Unfortuately he wasn't paying attn and has no knowledge previous to this and slotted the rotors accross the entire friction surface. I don't know for certain, but i think you usually see the slot not go from edge to edge so the pad still rides on the mating surface top and bottom. I'm thinking this might eat pads fast on me. Any input?


*edit* the date and name are there cuz i'm thinking I might see if an evo guy wants them. I paid too much for the Ferodo pads to risk eating them.
