Hey everyone I saw the link in the for sale section about the rotors and pads for 255 but the number is not in service any more. I have an 03 fx35 that has severe warping and need to find the best product for the best price so please send links or whatever you have. I need to order them soon the steering wheel whipping back and forth is ANNOYING!
Thanks for your time.

Wow sweet deal all 4 rotors and hp pads for 270....SHIPPED!
 
I was wondering if someone could help me with a brake question. Whats the right way to put the cross-drilled/slotted rotors on ? I think I may have put mine on the wrong way. Haven't drove it yet because I'm not sure about it. Picture below is my drivers side front wheel. I've googled it online and most people have it the other way. Just seems like the way I have it on makes sense because it lets the heat and brake dust fly out while going in a counterclock wise motion.

It's not about the direction of the slots, IT'S ABOUT THE DIRECTION OF THE INTERNAL COOLING VANES. Not all rotors have directionnal cooling vanes, you have to check your specific rotors.
 
Yeah just talked to R1 concepts and they said their internal coolign vanes are universal so it can go either way, just all depends on the looks. I'll probably keep it they way I have it now. Said it will make no difference on braking power. Thanks for the responses
 
There was a post on this somewhere. Unless manufacturer states it's a directional rotor, you can slap them on any direction. Someone did the research a while back.
 
I also have the discs from Rotorpro, have slotted/drilled ones, over 41k on them with no problems, bought them with the Hawk pads but I don't recommend those , too loud, I replaced them With Akebono pads, a lot quieter so I'm very happy I did .
 
Please help

Obviously i want the best bang for the buck and safety First!!! I'm thinking about getting 20 inch rims Velocity wheels VW880, motegi racing mr107 and Katana G10 rims

or any rotors you guys might recommend. I want an aggressive look
Thank you for any info you guys can give me
 
Hopefully this is still on the topic.
I have Rotorpros Drilled/Slotted rotors.
I have those rotors for about a little more than a year on my FX35.
Most recently, I hear this squealing noise whenever I step on the brake at low speed..
My pads still have plenty of life left..
Does this mean I have to either resurface the rotors or replace??
Does the direction it is installed matter? (Maybe switch the direction it is installed?)
Thanks guys!
