^^^ Hahaha, really?? Ya don't say?

(see the post just above yours)

Thanks for the plug, but it is Relentless AUTOSPORTS, not motorsports.

... and that price was a group buy price... Its just bit higher than that for all four of our, light weight, two piece, full floating rotors now.

So is no one a fan of the DBA Brand? Have there been bad experiences with them?

DBA is an EXCELLENT brand. One of the only ones that owns their own foundry. Hard to beat for daily driving and aggressive use. They often last 2-3 times longer than the regular stuff.

I have used DBA on my Z34 for 18 mnths ... a dozen track days and still going strong.

Part no DBA 52314SL and 52314SR for slotted right and left respectively for Akebono calipers

Scott @ RA · 01-18-2011, 02:59 AM

I would have to agree that compared to most any of the aftermarket rotors, DBA is amongst the best in the industry. I have used them quite a bit and have always liked them

Having said that... In case anyone was wondering...

..We at Relentless Autosports are STILL the only company in the world to make and offer a set of both FRONT & REAR (all four) 2 piece, light weight rotors for this Akebono brake kit. Our rotors also have features like rotational as well as directional pillar vained, gas vented, stress relieved, and heat treated for longer life. We offer our light weight two piece rotors in either a true full floating design, as well as a fix mounted unit. Not to mention ALL the rotors are made and manufactured right here in the USA.

with a weight savings of about 10 pounds for the fronts and 3 pounds for the rears... if i remember correctly...

Thanks, you were close..... but actually more like 11 pounds off each front and almost 4 off of each rear with our light weight two piece rotors. LOL
(Hey, every pound counts)

Endgame · 01-21-2011, 01:49 PM

even better!

zzdudaka · 01-21-2011, 02:18 PM

Saving up(it is a lot of coin)... but is likely my next upgrade.

That is a lot of coin. You can almost buy a complete front BBK for that kind of money.

Since this thread got revived, who wants to get in on my GiroDisc group buy?

Gauging Interest: GiroDisc 2 Piece Floating Rotors

Giddy up ladies and gentlemen, this is the real deal. Tested time and time again.

Scott @ RA · 01-21-2011, 09:11 PM

^^ LOL. Hahah For the sake of friendly competition.... I have NO problem putting our all American made, light weight, matching set of ALL FOUR, best outer rotor material (blend of inconel, nickel, and grey iron), then heat treat, stress relieved, shot-peined for better, and longer lasting than any other iron rotor material ever. Especially from any overseas cast iron pieces I have seen (including gyrodisc)
I actually liked gyrodisc at first too. I installed them on a couple 350Z's. One customer liked them fine, until they wore out and cracked along the slot after they were turned once (about a years worth of use).
A different customer of mine that had them had to get a replacement set from them once, then when they failed again for him (where the hat meets the outer rotor) he decided to go with something different.

That's just my personal experience with them, but just like anything...I am sure there are good stories from people who have gyrodisc rotors.

THMotorsports · 01-22-2011, 04:22 AM

I'm quite puzzled as to why you are "lol'ing" here Scott. Brakes are nothing to be kidding about, and honestly I really don't see where RA has a stand in the 2 piece brake department.

There are countless claims of GiroDisc's being some of the best 2 piece floating rotors in the market on several different chassis. Hell, we use them on our own time attack STi. I have not only driven our car on countless tracks, but I have also done numerous brake jobs. Never once have I ever had any problems.

GiroDisc has nothing to prove in the 2 piece rotor department. They have been around plenty long, and proved they are more than worthy.

If you're so confident in your rotors, send us a set, and we'll put them to the test.

Truth be told, your rotors are considerably more expensive than girodisc, and have less than half the reputation. Granted repuration can be nothing more than hear-say, but as everyone knows...GiroDiscs have been run through the gamut.

At the price I am offering the GiroDisc rotors, I nearly guarantee they will out perform you rotors for nearly $600 less. Let countless customers of GiroDisc back that up as well.

Oh, and for the record...its GIroDisc...no GyroDisc. The days of riding Dyno Comps are far gone.

For the sake of "friendly competition," care to elaborate on how your "competition inspired" rotors are so much better?
