| I read through it, but it just seemed to be a sales pitch for this one company that wants to sell custom made rotors. For the effort and price I might as well poke 5 x 115 into a z06 rotor. _________________  | |

| I agree. The fact that they were custom crafting the rotors probably means they aren't already out there, at least not when it was posted. Z06 rotors are pretty cheap, right? _________________ '05 GTO 6.0L • 6-spd • 95k miles • 0-60: 4.8s • 16.9 avg MPG • Nelson Ledges Lap: 1:26'95 Celica GT 2.2L • 5-spd • 165k miles • 0-60: yes'98 SC Riviera • 281k miles • 298 HP/370 TQ • 0-60: 5.79s • ET: 13.97 @ 99.28 • 4087 lb • 20.1 avg MPG • Nelson Ledges Lap: 1:30

| Ls1 tech says OEM ones are under 100 each, and there are a good amount of aftermarket ones out there too. The other advantage is its an item that's not about to stop being made anytime soon. It would be balls to buy a custom rotor, enjoy it for a bit and have the company go out of business. Especially for a consumable like a rotor.
Edit: rockauto has them at 74 bucks. _________________ | |

| Expensive. And I dont think the rotors will fit our hubs. The fbody guys can swap in the Z06 rotors which don't quite fit for us. For the money the cheapest big brake bundle for us would be the cts-v calipers, and 5 x 115 drilled Z06 rotors.
Edit:
woot, found info!! looks like the gtp guys use the 2005 Mustang GT500 Rotors.
