Coming soon Z1 2 piece 370Z Akebono front rotors, track tested.

Island_370 · 10-10-2009, 07:16 PM

Are they floating rotors, or just 2 piece rotors with aluminum hats?

When you were testing the rotors on the track what pads were you running?

Thanks

We tracked it on the stock pads to see how they would do. We will be taking the car back to the track on different pads. Yes the stock pads are now toast.

If it is a 5 pound reduction for both rotors together, IMO this is not a big bonus for me and drops this brand off my list. I would also wonder why Akebone could only drop 5 pounds, but RB could drop about 10 pounds PER rotor....

FuszNissan · 10-13-2009, 03:55 PM

Looks nice

Endgame · 10-30-2009, 12:34 PM

Any new news on these????

Equinox · 12-08-2009, 07:53 PM

5 pounds total it would seem. Not per rotor. Correct me if I'm wrong.

theDreamer · 12-08-2009, 07:56 PM

Anything new here?

RCZ · 12-09-2009, 04:39 PM

He said 5lbs per set, not per corner.

NewYorkJon34 · 12-09-2009, 05:55 PM
