You cannot use OEM rotors. Search the forum for BBK or xg brake set up or XG bbk ...etc..

you should just get the xg359 calipers, the bolt right up. then you get 05 kia spectra rotors. The calipers are dual piston, and the rotors are 2" bigger i believe. they'll cost a lot less and give you more than enough clamping power.

Get the XG350s up front. They will look awesome and be great for breaking. For a lot cheaper to. I think they will work in back also. Im going to be swapping my back over I think even though it wont be a big difference. Then Im getting all the dot3 out of there and moving to soemthing better.

Rotorpros can get you a good deal and they are great rotors. Rich is an awesome guy to work with.

Rich at rotorpros gave me a offer for 4 rotor,,,2rear and 2 front with black coating with shipping to norway for 380USD .it´s a lot but the dollar are low these days.. that will cost me around 2000NOK (norwegian crown)..and thats cheap for me..1.rotor fra a hyundai dealer costs over 1000NOK each..and they are not slotted and drilled like rotorpros once.

But i still need new brake pads..i were thinking about those Hawk pads...and i need caliper rebuild kits or 4 new calipers + ebrake cables.


i was thinking about mediablasting the calipers to get all the surface rust away and paint them black,but i need to rebuild them also.. and the rear calipers ,my ebrakes are a complete mess.i have burned my rear rotors and pads twice because af them and rusty ebrake wires.. seems to be that others have problems with them too. can some recommend a website to a firm with ok prices for rebuild kits or new calipers in usa?

i have sent Rich at rotorpros a new mail..same setup but without the painting and just slotted.maybe the price will go down a bit then...time will show.

Any pattern you would like zinc silver plated only for $355. Thanks


from Rich rotorpros..well thats cheaper
