Could be the new rotors, im actually using mine on the stock rotors right now (awaiting on KVR to send me my new set). So im assuming this is why Alucards looks different?

Also im using Motul RBF 600 brake fluid, took about a litre to do the front and rear calipers. This kit comes with the SS lines as well.

ok... after doing some research...

with the one piece rotors there is only a portion not used, which is the same on the rear rotors with their upgrade... but when you go to the two piece the whole rotor is used...

here is a pic of Polaks car with the caliper upgrade and the two piece rotors

I do not think so, they might.

Check out Goodwin Racing. If not listed there then send Brian an Email.

And make sure you buy the kit from him.

No they won't clear 17" RPF1's, nor will they clear the 18x9.5 +45 RPF1's/

Anything thinner than 9" wide on the RPF1 they should clear due to the hi disk nature of it.

Brian's a great guy but you can always support your forum vendor like us. shamelss plug.

I will always have the best deals on RB and Enkei. Plus i too have done all these test fitments on my own personal rx8 as well as customers.

I have Silver and Black RPF1's in stock 17x9 and 18x9.5.

I always have GB pricing. just hit me up and no worries i'll take care of ya.

i'm trying to setup another batch of RB orders for next week. I got a bunch of people asking for rotors so add onto that and you'll get your happy deal.

Are you saying these calipers won't clear any 17" wheel?

^ I think he means it wont clear concave wheels like the 9+inch wide rpf1's.

Do these use OEM sized pads? can I use my race pads on these, or do they have a different size?

and they do fit with OEM wheels?

Thanks.
