Dicky Posted April 5, 2015 Share Posted April 5, 2015 Sunny afternoon so decided to check and expected to have to change my discs(rotors) given they've done 70k now. When I measured the front rotor thickness (avoiding the wear lip at the edge) they were 28.3mm. I looked at the workshop manual (BR section) and it says Standard(New) thickness 24mm, change at min thickness 22mm and quotes the Rotors as CLZ25VD. I looked at my new Pagid rotors and they measure 30.5mm and stamped along the edge it says to replace at 28.3mm What's going on. Either my vernier is all to **** (it seems fine) the manual is all to ****, I'm all to **** or my discs are getting fatter like me!! Help, my brain hurts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyser Posted April 5, 2015 Share Posted April 5, 2015 (edited) Is that not the thicknesses for the JDM Brakes - not the Brembos? Edited April 5, 2015 by Keyser Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dicky Posted April 5, 2015 Author Share Posted April 5, 2015 Is that not the thicknesses for the JDM Brakes - not the Brembos? No idea. The car is a UK version with a brembo abrakes, but when they talk about Brembo brakes does that just apply to the Calipers or does it include the rotors as well?

Dicky Posted April 5, 2015 Author Share Posted April 5, 2015 Just came across a 2004 spec on the net for Brembo brakes (which does include the a Rotors) and the thickness ( new) is quoted as 1.18" which is 30mm. So I assume there much the same as the Pagid Rotors, so I think I'm going to take the replacement thickness to be 28.3 as stamped on my new Pagid rotors. Unless I here from someone who knows better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
