Default 3.2 rotor question...
can the 225's use the 3.2 rotors without the calipers?

Default If you could find a way to do this you would probably still have to change mounting brackets.
Since the rotors themselves are bigger, the calipers are sitting further away from the spindle, so it seems to me that you would have to get some mounting hardware *if* by chance this would work. I have my doubts, but it never hurts to ask. :-) -Doug

Default Nope. They are the 'floating' rotor type

Default They are NOT floating rotors - calipers still "float" and rotors are fixed
they look like floating rotors but in fact are fixed.

Default Etka 2004 ?
Hi Jeff,
I guess the 3.2 is not on "Etka 2003" but only on "Etka 2004". Your pic shows "year 04", I'd love to know where to find the CD !
Thanks

Hervé

Are our front calipers and rotors worth anything to dubbers?
