I picked up the two piece drilled and slotted front rotors. I didn't see any rear sets. Were they planning on coming out with those sometime soon?

Over the phone with John@Z1, I was told to expect them within the next 2-3 months. I'm pretty excited!

"Racing Brakes" (that's the name of the company) sells a 2 piece rear already, has for a couple years. Look them up.

Z1's will no doubt be cheaper tho. (I have single piece DBA 4000's in the back, it'll be a long time before they're worn enough for me to justify replacing them. :-/ )

I have the Racing Brake 2 piece rotors front and rear on my Z. No problems so far. Yes they are a bit more money. When I got mine. I found marks on the rings from where they checked the hardness of them. Do the Z1 rings have a dimple mark on them?

I've looked into them many times, they are local even!

And I know you have them! Lol


My issue was that they wouldn't play ball on the price AT ALL, and when I DID get someone who would give a price break, it was like $10 but I'd have to pay tax.

Also, Racing Brake may go out of business or get bought out and god knows if they will still make discs... But Z1... I HIGHLY doubt they're going anywhere. I don't think we'll let them, lol

I thought it was so the wheel would work with multiple bolt patterns?

Mayyyyyybe, but there are only 5 points that touch the hub/rotor, so I HIGHLY doubt it.
