Sorry.

Those are similar to mine, just smaller. Red Stuff are amazing.

The only thing is under heavy braking there is an interesting HMMMMMMMMMMM kinda like when a jet brakes on landing. I like/dislike it.

I love this mod though.

I'll try again.

I measured the rotors when they arrived & they were 13"

I tried to find the part number but could not.

Maybe it will help if I use a random smiley?

No idea where you get your numbers but they are high.

I paid (off the top of my head)

Calipers 250, Brackets 120, SS lines 90, pads 85, disks 185. = 730 & I have calipers that use pads I can get anywhere as opposed to needing Wilwood pads that are $$. Plus I prefer ACURA on them.

I had coupons that took 10% off the lines, pads & rotors.


Why would you get Nissan pads for RL calipers?

RL pads shouldnt be expensive. My Red Stuff pads were ~$90. The lines were about $90 as well.

Check out ajusa.com. They have alot of deals on parts.

Depends on the wheel. But I doubt a high offset such as that would clear. It needs to have a tall pad to clear.

^ I think they cost more. We really cant say what they cost based on aluminum stock prices and how they fluctuate.

Any chance these clearing with a 15mm spacer on the stock 2nd gen wheels? My old Rotoras cleared with a 5mm spacer on the stock wheels.

Not sure about the stock wheels. Paul said that I would need at least a 10mm spacer to fit my 18x8 48mm RJ Legends.

03 cls stockies needs at least 15mm spacers or maybe 20mm. I knew Rotora BBK needs 5mm spacer on stockies. so i tried 5mm on RL calipers, but it didn't work. and i tried 10mm. not even close! I was like f&*k this!! 01,02 cls stockies won't even clear inside of wheel. so you better find wheels to clear RL calipers. anyway this is one of the best upgrade so far!!!
