Where to get Rotors slotted?

[grepin]

Wondering where in Adelaide I can have my front disc rotors slotted off my R33 and how much I expect to pay?

Thanks

You can buy direct replacement rotors ... bit over $200 for a front set, direct bolt on no mods required.

www.dba.com.au (Disc Brakes Australia)

or

www.rda.com.au (Rotors & Drums Australia)

I just got a set of RDA front slotted rotors for my Supra for $240.

Ask Chris32, he had Shaun at Boost Worx do them I think.

Thanks I know and will do when mine are worn out. Howerver maybe a hundred dollars as against nearly $500 is just too much of a step up atmo.

Getting them slotted at K&A for $60+GST. They didnt need a machine however would cost an extra $40. So happy with that price.

By the way when is the motor going in. Want to sell the short motor.

is the above price include labour of taking the rotor off the car?

cheers

Nah pulled them myself. It is dead easy. DIY on here I think may help. Pull off your wheels, two smaller bolts hold the bracket to your lines, two larger bolts hold on the calipers, slide off the calipers and fold behind as lines can now move, then pull off the rotor. To do it right there are two bolt holes to release the rotor however a rubber mallett taping the back will do it, they may even pull off by hand. If there are two white plastic locators on there they pop off with the rotor

Was that price for each rotor or for the pair?

Thanks!

For the pair.

$66 for slotting the pair.

$40 if you need them faced. Think that would be the pair.

I took them in on Wednesday and got them back today at lunch. However I rang them to find out if they were ready. I also said no rush. It depends how much work is tooled up at the time of dropping them off. If you work it out with them it should be able to get done in a day.

I take it having them slotted this way actually gives you benefits in cooling etc, and are not purely cosmetic?

Nah not at all. Basically clean the face of your pads to stop them glazing over. Especially with the higher temperatures of track use.

I thought it also stops a layer of gas forming between the pad and the disk (during hard braking) which reduces the coefficient of friction. The slots allow this gas to vent and thus improves the efficiency of the system.

Secondary benifits include a cleaning system which aids in removal of impurities from the disk, pad or local environment.

The disadvantage is slightly quicker pad wear.

That as well
