Rotora 8/4 BBK installed!
 

So I picked up a Rotora BBK from a member that was selling it here and on another forum I'm a part of. This kit was specially made for a SEMA showcar and I was able to get it from a great deal! I went to Performance Motorsports on Friday to get the kit installed. The kit comes with cross-drilled and slotted rotors and SS brake lines from Rotora. The front brake is an 8 pot caliper with 4 brake mini pads for each brake. The rear is a 4 pot brake (like the OEM Akebono front). While installing, we ran into a few problems, the front brake is so large that it didn't clear the balancing wheel weights inside the front 2 rims and we had to take them off, will need to be replaced with thinner, low-profile weights when they get rebalanced. Also 3 of my extended spacer studs were cross-threaded and the passanger wheel is only being held tightly by 2 lug nuts :mad:


Well here are the pics:

That looks sick! The fronts barely clear the wheels.

nice

so beautiful...


so jealous...

Holy crap.

That's awesome.

You could always buy some 20's. But those puppies look beautiful.

What size are the rotors?

thanks for all the comments guys!

15'' Front and 13'' Rear

No wonder it's close. I'm surprised it fits with 19's.

hehe I actually love the tight fit look, my biggest issue will be with the spare.

time for a full size spare!

or AAA

Looks great Toxik :)

Pure SEX! Take care of them bro =)

EDIT: Gogogo get extended Rays red lug nuts if they fit.

They look amazing. Those fronts are awfully close! But it looks great. Keep it up.

thanks bro. yeah red lugs would look great, unfortunately the nismo wheels can only use nissan's oem shank lugs :\

Very nice! Yes, you need black or red lugnuts. :)

Oops, just saw your reply...black or red spray paint then.

Those things are HUGE! Sweet lookin.

damn those look good.

thanks for all the love guys!

Lock this thread. I'm jealous now.

I'll have to search for that. It almost doesn't sound bad.

Wish I had the loot. Awesome!

honest question.. what did you do with your stockers?

<3

whicked man!...get some red muteki lugs.

I would love an 8pot front. Looks awesome!

I can not find one pic of this setup? I'm sort of interested in the look.

Looks sick dude.

:yum:

Niiiice! Boy that's a big wing.

I tell you. You got me thinking about this. Seriously

Nice brakes!

how do they feel?

Car and brakes were sold. Now has a Bimmer. :shakes head:


:rolleyes:

looks great now just take the wheels off and clean the inside to really make them pop!!!

Sick nuf said

Did you have to run spacers in the front to make sure the kit cleared?

Considering the post is seven years old, and the OP has not been on here for over a year, I doubt he will answer.



If you read the post, he does mention extended spacer studs, which is a good indicator of spacers.


If you searched his journal, he says 15mm H&R spacers.
