RL Brake Swap
I have an 01 tl type s and purchased some 06 rl calipers. I wanted to know if anybody knew what type of rotors i need for the swap.

realized the same thing after the fact, it will be interesting to see if its a mistake or it actually is swapped. BTW trying to work on that DIY for the ported runners for you.

As what was posted in the other thread (see quote) you asked in, No. They have to be the 350 rotors

The RL rotors are 5x120 as well.
