Brakes Database MS3/MS6!

[RhoadBlock]

I know, but Centric & StopTech are the same (identical part numbers) so I just posted StopTech stuff. And I was sick of googling links, trying to find part numbers and prices.

I'll look more up later. Or if anyone else has any of those links, or any of the info I didn't find (dashed out prices or part numbers), they are more than welcome - invited actually - to post them.

I PM'd Raider to merge the MS6 info into the 1st post as well. But I'm signing off for the night.

[Raider]

I'll merge in the AM. Trying to do it on a phone sucks.

Are any of the rotors lightweight blanks? I usually go with OEM rotors because I get a discount, but if there were some good, lightweight ones, I'd probably go that way. I do 99% street driving, so slotted or drilled rotors are more trouble to me than they're worth.

[IshiKage]

I was at a race shop today and was told about Winhere rotors and how good they are. and they are $40 going to pick some up

@IshiKage interesting - i took a look at them - i'd like to hear what you think of them after you put some wear on the rotors - what pads will you be running?

[IshiKage]

i have Hawk HPS Ceramics

There are Hawk HPS (Semi-metallic) pads, and Hawk Performance Ceramic pads, but no "Hawk HPS Ceramic" pads...

[Nataphen]

I guess the answer to my lightweight blanks question is a no. Damn, damn, damn. I figured that would be an easy way to drop some rotational weight.

[KNS Brakes]

I have been back ordered on the MS3 front High Carbon rotors for over 2 months now. I just received 3 pair and more are on their way!

I also have the Mazda speed 6 Centric High Carbon rotors here in stock.

On both cars the rear rotors are still the Centric Premium rotors - Non High Carbon.



WAHOOOOOO

How is the quality of the rotors? The have good prices and have a combination of f&r rotors with ceramic pads for 322 shipped, not too bad if you ask me.. I remember there was an eBay vendor popular for nissans called 88 rotors and they're rotors were very good. So I have nothing against eBay stuff..

[forcedinduktion]

woah so many choices. i could see how that could be a problem choosing

i havent gotten the rotors yet but by im going to since im getting ready to order wheels. will post a thread once i do

[maddocx240]

Oh ok.. kns also has a good package deal for centric rotors and hawk pads.

[Code Monkey]

For MS6, pads subsections read "front" and "front", should be "front" and "rear".

I have the OEM front brake pads # as GPYA-33-23ZG, not GPYA-33-2326?

Looks like Porterfield makes both the front and rear brake pads for the speed6. The pads come in two flavors:

R-4 – original road racing compound that is very rotor friendly and easy to modulate, has medium friction with a 0-1400 temp range. Optimum temp range for this pad is 450F–1200F.

R4-S – performance street pad, this pad offers the least dust and squeal of any of the street pads we carry. It is very rotor friendly and will last as long as your stock pad but typically they last a little bit longer.
