i know how to google, and thank you for helping me find the information on the rear rotors.


But i still need to know the front rotors specs...:thanks:

JimmyMac 09-01-2012 11:30 PM

Fronts are 11.6 inch... so I'm guessing 295x25.5mm. The rears being 11.4 inch.

JimmyMac 09-01-2012 11:35 PM

But don't quote me on that because I'm also seeing a reference on 292mm size.

JimmyMac 09-01-2012 11:59 PM

Mine measured 24mm thickness with my digital calipers. So 294mm x 24mm? Or the 292mm reference on the BRZ?

Well they are close enough that I usually consider them the same thing, especially when you are looking for aftermarket parts. Subaru does have both sizes, with the 294mm rotors going on the WRX and 292mm rotors going on the Legacy. There are some slight differences in construction between the two (Legacy rotors have a little more material in the disc) but they are interchangeable. I think Stoptech/centric is the only aftermarket company that distinguishes between the two: The 294mm wrx rotor is 12x.47018 while the legacy uses 12x.47021

As you can see, not very different although the 021 rotor is heavier. If you are looking to buy some stoptech/centric rotors, most places are going to only have the wrx parts in stock and I'm not sure if they make as many variations of the Legacy rotor (drilled/slotted/125 material etc).

Also I just updated that post linked to add some more BRZ/FRS info.

thanks for your reply, i also found some info on dba australia, similar to posted above. they have an online catalogue

Scion specs call for 11.6" rotors for the fronts and 11.4" for the rears. The specs in the FR-S shop manual says 24mm thickness. So I think the question is, are BRZ and FR-S front rotors different? 11.6" is about 294.6mm. 292mm would be 11.5". But the 2mm or so difference is very minimal. The important thing is that it's 24mm thick.

no difference. just conversion error/marketing optimism/whatever.
