Thread: F-Body drilled (only) rotors

with the r1's follow the break in procedure and over the next week/few hundred miles they only get better feeling, and thats kinda hard to believe when they already feel so damn good.

buy them off ebay, cheaper there, and you get 10% or maybe 20 if you buy 2 sets, aka front and back. just make sure your buying matching rotors pads front and back.

add both to your ebay cart then buy or you dont get the discount. iirc i paid right about 200 shipped for f bodys and stock rear pads and rotors.

the other great thing is replacement pads are only 30 bucks for the f bodys.

Good advice. I always follow the break-in procedure and as a result, I have ceramic brake pads that have lasted up to 90,000 miles. That's pretty good I say.

Since last night this time, I have learned patience at searching for brake parts!

I do not know what brand of F-body rotor I have on my 2002 GP. It is just crossdrilled, not slotted. I have had the rotor off the car before and I did not see any markings whatsoever on it indicating who makes the rotor. It has been on the GP for 163,000 miles, and it's been turned down 1 time so far. There is no warpage, and there are no cracks around the holes on the surface. A few people I talk to said it could be made by Brembo. Would ZZP have sold Brembo rotors with their F-body kits for the GP back in 2008?

Well, whoever is the manufacturer, I would like to have another set.

I have found Brembo front drilled rotors for 1998-2002 F-body, part # 37181. These are sold from RPM Speed.com for $202 a pair.

For comparison, AndysAutoSport has the exact same rotor for $329 a pair

Update on these Brembo rotors: the company is no longer making these, they have decided to retool. All the sites I checked don't have them. That's any rotor being made by Brembo.

(note: what do I need to do to get a link to work? I have noticed many on here lately that do not work)
