Yes. I purchased new rotors from the firm some years ago.... however that was the last pair of new rotors they had.

wrapped? If it was warped you might be able to shave it get some more life out of it. If I am getting my larger brakes I will be selling mine in a couple of months. Or check Maztune for a set.

i just have to bear with the wining when braking

also can the 323F front brakes work on the BF

im planning on shaving them weekend

^^ I did that with my previous set. It reduced the overall performance of the braking. They tended to cause the pads to glaze quickly when driving aggressively.

was they done properly

Computerman · Postby **Computerman** » January 28th, 2009, 12:06 pm

^^ Yes. There was no vibration, and they worked fine in 'normal' driving. However, they failed miserably during 'spirited' driving.

serious, is hard most of the time for me so is new rotors then

I used the shaved rotors for a few months then got the new ones. The guy I have the shaved rotors to still using them. But I needed better performance, for obvious reasons.

so on the shaved rotors on hard braking what are the results

Computerman · Postby **Computerman** » January 29th, 2009, 12:33 pm

The brakes would work ok once or twice, but the rotors weren't cooling efficiently so temperatures of the pads and rotor were not where they should have been (metal density blah blah blah) causing severe brake fade and glazing on the pads. But as I said, this was only when 'driving hard' not just driving fast.

Like driving hard on a winding road, plenty brakes and acceleration.

hoss shaving of rotors is a step by step process after shavin you have to allow the rotors and NEW pads to bed in properly if you drive too fast on newly shaved rotors you're going to glaze the pads and create hot spots on the rotors which limit braking effiency even brand new rotors need to be broken in

^^ Important point.
