Complete Z1 2 piece rotor kit weighting 30.9 kg or 14.4 kg lighter compared to Oem setup!
I wanted them drilled/slotted but seller sent me slotted only

however weight savings are awesome

dimitarm · 08-08-2015, 08:14 AM

South Bend Daily stage 2 kit + silent disc option (Clutch, flywheel, pressure plate) total of 16.3 kg

Jordo! · 10-24-2015, 07:01 PM

^^^ Nice!

What's your Z weighing in at now?

Also, how has the battery been holding up?

KaienZ34 · 10-25-2015, 01:18 AM

Wondering the same about the battery as my oem battery has totaly crapped out.

dimitarm · 10-26-2015, 08:12 AM

newls196 · 03-12-2016, 02:13 PM

Anyone know.. please? I need to buy a battery as the stock one is very weak (12.2v resting) and only makes sense to replace it with a lighter battery.. Thanks
