Replacement rotors for BRZ PP Brembos?
After a bit of searching I'm still a bit lost as to what options us PP owners have for rotor replacements.
Are there tried and true options out there? I see OEM rotors listed for $411—something seems fishy there. |

I just went through this. Not much info out there about what fits. The best info I found was on FT86speed. I ended up going with the DBA 5000 series 2 piece drilled and slotted on the front 5654GLDXS-10. DBA 4000 series slotted on rear 42656S-10.
I did find a better price on some components at other vendors. Also when I ordered the rear rotors from FT86speed I made a mistake. When I contacted their “Customer Service” I was basically told it is not our fault you made a mistake for F you! It was not the fact that they would not help it was the way they handled it. They are on my black list now. |

Rockauto.com or just search the part number.
Fronts: CENTRIC 125.47019 Rears: CENTRIC 125.47043 Please dear god don't overpay for rotors like DBA. From an engineering standpoint, you simply want high carbon content, blank (but vented) rotors. Don't believe me? Look up Formula 1 brakes and you'll see they run blanks. It's simple thermodynamics, where you want as much useful mass as possible. Besides, pads don't expel as much gas as they used to so the viability of slotted are nullified and drilled rotors? Well that's just literally unsafe for track applications. Edit: There's an argument to be had about slotted's great water-shedding ability, but useless you'll building a rally car that's not needed.

True that they aren't always functionally important, but customization is why cars are fun, right? |

Also F1 brakes are carbon fiber. Apples and oranges. Yes there are CF brakes that are drilled. |

Centric High Carbon content: $66 per rotor DBA: $147 per rotor (on sale, $238 normally) So they're actually over twice as expensive. Normally 3.5x expensive lol. You can buy a super high quality pyrometer for the money saved.

Do these two part numbers specifically fit the PP brakes? It's hard to tell from the listings. |
