Steve W Posted November 9, 2003 Share Posted November 9, 2003 If they're Titanium rotors, dya' reckon they go 'funny' colours when they get a good 'heat-up' ? ? like the Ti exhausts ?? or, don't you reach the same sort of temps on brakes as zorsts ?? (zorsts a lot thinner too...obviously) (OR, would the 'coloured'-surface layer keep getting rubbed off anyway ?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick Posted November 9, 2003 Share Posted November 9, 2003 On ZMI's webpage they say they're the result of years of R&D on the racetrack but I've never heard of them, has anyone else? Personally if I was going to spend that amount of money on a set of brakes then they'd have to do more than sit there and look shiney... Titanium would certainly reduce the unsprung weight which can only be good, I'm just not convinced by the rest of the marketing blurb.... I think they look shit but opinions are like arse holes, everyone's got one... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MONKEYmark Posted November 9, 2003 Author Share Posted November 9, 2003 if you was spending that sort of money would get some porsche brakes and get them fitted. im sure you could get them fitted with a bit of work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobbeh Posted November 9, 2003 Share Posted November 9, 2003 They're just Brembo's right? You can get a Brembo kit for the Supra. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve W Posted November 9, 2003 Share Posted November 9, 2003 On the bikes, everyone aspires to Brembos..... or at least up till now... now it's a mix of Brembos, or, the latest RADIALLY-mounted Jap' calipers ??? (some tosh about circular 'forces' onto the rotor ?? - I'm sure THEY think it's important - sells R1s/Fireblades anyhow:p ) some 'fringe' manufacturers have tried Carbon rotors (don't get hot enough on the road to WORK !) and the 'edge-of-wheel- rim' rotors to increase 'size' to the MAX...... neither have caught on............ (doesn't the Elise have Carbon rotors ? or is it ceramic ?) still... Black rotors wouldn't BLING on a Soop ! ! ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
