Any Evo from V to IX rotors will fit. 320mm x 32mm.

Plain rotors can be bought from eBay for less than $130 for the pair.

Did you get the rear brembos fitted Ben? Did you end up using the galant hub?

That good huh? I'm seriously considering the brakes for obvious reasons. I know it's expensive and most think that good rotors and pads are enough but I disagree, and I don't think you can ever have too much braking power.

The only downside is the weight. Stock evo rotors are 10 kegs a pop, compared to the FTO rotors at 7kg a pop. I ended up spending 600 bucks on super lightweight 2 piece rotors from the US. Which surprisingly enough are 7kgs each...

6 kilos of unsprung weight make that much difference?

How much? :S might have to look into the same rotos that ben has in that case

Not really sure, ben would be best to ask, his area of expertise lol. Has something to do with rotating mass affecting various things.

Did you get your brembo bracket made of buy it like that?

http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Mitsubishi-G ... 72a&_uhb=1 will these fit?

They will with calliper brackets. freakyparts.co.uk sell the brackets, you'll also need 350z brembo rotors.

I costed this exactnsetup 2 days ago, gonna set you back around 700-750. You'll also need to get new brake lines, best get braided lines (unless you already have them)

Is that not what I suggested above?

But you newd an adapter plate and a bigger disc off a 350z Sports..

I have all (except the rotors)..

Local RDA or DBA rotors will suffice.. Even Evo 8's.. Has to be a 320 to 324mm rotor.. And u need rims to clear them..

Will all be going on the Evo when I sell my FTO.

I may do a 5 stud conversion while at it..
