Dan Gardner DG spec brake upgrade - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Saw these pop up in Facebook, I will post the links and video tomorrow but they offer larger rotors all around with better cooling, new pads, lines, and fluid. The new rotors are slotted and save 2 pounds per corner. I will update when I have more information direct from the source but these have been track tested and if Dan puts his name on it I think it will certainly be a quality product.

I didn't realize they were larger. Do they include a new caliper bracket to space out further for the bigger rotor?

In the video it says they fit using the stock brackets, the slotting of the rotor isn't as pretty as some other rotors but if they are functional that's all that matters anyways. Since I don't plan on tracking I'm going to see about just getting the rotors seperately also for those that don't want to run a track pad on the street.
