Oh nevermind lol, I read that as a "power slotted" rotor, cause he told me he was gonna buy the slotted DBA 4000s a while back.

I run DBA's. Given the choice I would use no other rotor.

I've warped and cracked some of the other rotors in the passed. With Centric I had issues with brake fluid boiling because they don't distribute heat well. The DBA's don't seem to push as much heat into the fluid.


I'm going to be swapping to LGT before too long here and I'll be putting my whole set up for sale. Won't be much for you guys but if anyone has an RS it might be a cheap upgrade. It'll be pads, rotors, calipers.

You have a flat work space?

I don't have access to my garage right now and I really need to do that up pipe/turbo install. Oh... and did you figure out how to do it without popping the manifold off?

I only have the two turbo gaskets and the 1 up pipe gasket.

I have a super flat 4 car workable driveway... Have to remove the o2 sensor then its easier, for yours we might be able to install the up pipe from the top of the engine, just have to get all the damn heatsheilds out of the way(pita).
