NEW Rotors check

I'm in the UK which seriously nobbled my chances of finding uprated rotors. It's OEM parts from Eurocar parts which are fine of course but not exactly cheap at 120 UK pounds a pair. Other than that it's a 1500 UK pound Porsche kit upgrade. I'm only referring to front rotors in this post.
All I wanted was to spend a bit more on moderately upgrading my rotors. After a year of searching my brothers main parts supplier (he has a Supra TT) came up with 3 offerings based on a Brembo rotor. I choose the 10 grooves version but they are available in 20 groove and dimple drilled if requested.

The serial numbers don't match the ones bschaber mentioned but that might be a US vs UK thing I suppose. These are an exact match for the original rotors and those from Eurocarparts which are stated to cover the 100Q/A6Q/A8Q. Mines an A8Q/96/ABZ/4.2/32V/Sport btw.
These rotors I have cost 200 UK pounds for a pair and do perform considerable better than the standard rotors. I use EBC red stuff pads as standard pads are a tad soft and the grooved rotors tend to eat them quite quickly.
Anyways, not all that relevant I know but it's hard to find decent rotors in the UK and at least I can help some folks here![Smile](https://www.audiworld.com/forums/images/smilies/smile.gif)
Oh, I got them from www.envyperformance.com - they are a Jap performance company and these rotors are not listed obviously. Speak to Gaz or Kev there though and ask about A8 front rotors and they'll know what you mean
