how deep pockets?

[dyla350z]

Not that deep

[andlid]

pf discs are class looking and peform great on track/fast road with a matched pad but think it'll be a bit pricey for you. how deep are shallow pockets?

[dyla350z]

They are deep but empty,ive only had the motor 4months & ive spent 5k on it what sort of money will decent front discs come to?

[Neilp]

About a grand. Don't buy ebc turbogrooved, everyone that I know up here that has them complains about the noise and aren't impressed by them. The oem brembo discs are good enough.

[dyla350z]

Thanks,i may just give it to abbey to sort out when it go's in the wk after next.

[Mark@Abbey m/s]

Stoptech 2 piece rotors are very good and cheaper than PFC rotor set up.

 

I wil get some prices you lot for Stoptech stuff on here tomorrow , should be able to sort a good deal.

[dyla350z]

Ive got the pads so just disc's,Scott rang and im booked in on the 25th,thanks Garry.

[andlid]

is there any floating rotors to get?

[Vik54]

But look how purty the PF discs are

 

 

 

and sorry Neily but I don't know where on earth you're getting a figure of £1k just for front rotors from? PF come in at around £550 IIRC Even adding lines and fluid you're only looking at an extra £60 for HEL or £120 for goodridge

[dyla350z]

Yes they look great

[Neilp]

Ah I thought it was 550 a side! Is that the pair vik?

[Vik54]

yup

[Neilp]

Just checked the man with the zed on his chests subforum. They are 595 a pair now. But oh how very sexy!

[andlid]

thought it was more then 550£ to be honest, you getting better prices there vik?

Erm nope! They were £550 for about a year but only went up just recently - still v good price IMHO

[ZMANALEX]

Performance Friction Rotors available here.

I have run with both the Performance Friction and the Stoptech rotors and I must say that I definately prefer the Performance Friction.

[Steady Zeddy]

I fitted the PF rotors (and DS2500 pads) from Alex recently and ran them on a trackday and the difference over my standard rotors (with 80% Endless Pads) was quite remarkable.

 

Fantastic upgrade for the Zed and well worth the money.

[Greekman]

cant comment on stoptech as i v never tried them.

 

PF are the only ones that lasted long enough to have a visible lip...and no judder at all!!!

noisy yes but thats prob because of my pads.

 

as for ebc, brembo, dixcel and those australian ones (cant remember the name) the PF ones are way ahead. i v tried the rest
