I'm interested too, I would like 2 upgrade my front rotors with the DBA slotted ones, and not the cross drilled and slotted rotors, I heard these tend to crack? keep us posted on model + prices, cheers

I've been getting part numbers and compatibility information together over the last few hours and something has struck me as slightly odd'..

The bigger rotors that are found on the GT, 3.0 etc are coming up as compatible for use on the 2.0R; that is being the 316x30(f) and 290x18(r) sized rotors however the 2.5i was fitted with smaller rotors 277x24(f) & unsure of rear size as no DBA4000s available for them.

Who can confirm this?

Why do people need slotted rotors on street cars, cos they look cool??

On street driven cars standard or 4000 standard is sufficient.

Well standard 4000 street performance rotors are available, slotted 4000 rotors & 5000s too..

I'll be going for the street performance rotors personally, but if slotted isn't much more then why not?!?!?

Slotted are way better!!! I had a pair of DBA slotted rotors on the front of my S14 200sx and they not only look awesome but stop the car friggin fantastic! the slots on the rotor dispel the gasses that are created when braking, hence why the better braking performance!

So gents, turns out there isn't money to be made in rotors, slotted or the like. The effort I would need to put in to save you fellas 20 smackers just doesn't seem worth it.

Sorry guys :(

Old thread but just for reference back in 2010 I paid the following for the DBA XS Rotors.

5000XS for the Fronts @ $660 each ($1320 pair)
4000XS for the Rears @ $390 each ($780 pair)

Had a bit of a problem getting the rears as the size seemed unique...so they had to be made. I am unsure if I got ripped off or not.
