    TD5 Brake Rotors

    Hey guys

    I saw this link back in the forum but didn't answer my question.

    [/url]http://www.aulro.com/modules.php?name=Forums&file=viewtopic&t=10629&hig hlight=td5+brakes[/url]



    Almost about to purchase a 99 TD5 D2.

    My question was with the how much the Brake Rotors cost on a TD5 D2?

    The rear rotors need to be replaced in order for the Road Worthy Certificate to be issued. The Owner said he is happy to replace the rear Brake Rotors upon sale. He said this this would usually be $250 but he is happy to replace. Now my question is, does he mean $250 for ONE rotor or $250 for BOTH rotors?

    If anyone has any ideas or rough estimates I would appreciate them thanks.

    P.S Front Rotors just make it through the Road Worthy but I'll be replace them at the same time the rear is done.

    thanks

    Evan

    Hi Evan,
    That sounds about right, but just make sure they use Genuine rotors as if not they may cause the ABS/TC/HDC lights to come on..!!
    It may be a little more expensive but well worth it in the End, it just means u wont have to replace them again.
    Have seen this happen a few times.
    Cheers

    I run EBC rotors and pads and they have never affected the ABS sensors. I suspect its the squeel that does it, and EBC kit at least does not squeel.

    Hey Slunnie, is the performance from the EBC system a big improvement over the standard set up ('99 MY) and what sort of $ are you looking at. Depending on $ I would like to ugrade mine as running the larger tyres, plus the added weight I have from bar work etc, I would like a bit more bite from the middle pedal :wink:

    Aye as always, Mick

    Gday Mick
    Front dimpled/slotted rotors were 320pr, rears 195pr, greenstuff pads were 172pr and 146pr rears.

    They&#39;re good in terms of stopping, though I think that they have now lost their very hot performance in comparison to the first set I ever got. This is my 3rd set of pads.
    Cheers
