Are you 100% certain they are cross drilled? I mean actually drilled after they have been cast?

You will find they are refered to as a 'cross drilled' but the manufacturing process is very very different. i.e. the brembo discs.

They maybe cast in and finish machined (holes chamfered) after casting, who knows?

Either way they're still a better perfoming disk for track use albeit with a shorter life expectancy.

Like I said though unless your a 10/10th's track driver slotted is sufficient (and longer lived).

cheers mate, i was puzzled when i saw only rotors on there without hats but now i know sounds like the way to go!!!

anyone reckon its worth getting slotted rears too?

i wouldnt bother upgrading to slotted rears just to do it, but if they are due for a replacment then go for it. also go a slightly more aggresive rear pad compound than OEM

Nah this price does not include labour, I wanna give it a shot - DIY FTW
Sway bars and links will be easy... ALK might need a bit of research, but I think its pretty easy too

Camber bolts can be fitted by wheels world for example, as they need to be adjusted properly with a wheel alignment.

However, I will ask abdus on how much it would be worth to fit, my guess is $60-120?? Going by workshop labour rates....


Will anyone else be in for this package?
