racing brake rear rotor's

NewYorkJon34 · 06-25-2011, 08:35 AM

I'm at the shop right now, on the 370z you can't just remove the whole backing plate without losing your e-brake. I'm having the guy grind down the inner rim hub where it is rubbing & that should fix it. So thsee rotors were def not tested on a 370z, prob just a g37s.

Car looks great with them on.

I wouldn't waste the money on Motul 660 unless you are heading to the track. Castrol GT LMA is cheap and more than high performance enough. Some extreme high performance brake fluids are not designed to sit in your brake system for extended periods and could allow corrosion as a result.

It's still very good brake fluid, & I daily drive my car so I'm not worried

Of course it is good brake fluid. However it is intended to be flushed every 6 months or so, just be forewarned.

you can see where the bolts that hold the rotors together rubbed on the parking brake hub outer ring/
We only had to grind on a very small area, as they touched on differnet spots of the passenger and drives side.
We did not have to touch the dust shields at all.
