IN the DBA catalogue. There is a listing for UC Torana. Cat no 010. Also says available in slotted and drilled.
My question is, with the slotted and drilled, is the disc thicker than the original. If so what caliper do you need to use with these discs?
thanks

i wouldnt use the UC rotors as the torana brakes are crap, do a brak up grade with HQ rotors you can get he kit from CRS or rod tech in adelaide you get much better brakes:D

Thats why I asked the ?. I can't see how they can have vented discs and still be the same thickness as the Std ones.
Apart from the fact the HQ has vented discs, why are they better. Are they a better caliper? I think they are a bigger dia disc (can't be bothered checking just now).
I have an adaper set that I made up several years ago, haven't gotten around to fitting them yet. Will have to buy a set of HQ discs drilled to the UC stud PCD as I don't want to change my wheels.
I'll get the car back on the road with the UC brakes first. It only weighs about 850 - 900 KGs so they will be alright for a while.

The say slotted, not vented. Slotting and drilling both are machining operations that can be done on any disk.
