getting new pads and rotors myself this weekend along with my AEM cold air intake =]

 

anyone have any input on a 2 piece rotor?? wats so special bout those?

 

AEM doesn't have a TRUE cold air intake. Get an eBay intake and save money on the brand name or make your own 3.0L CAI.

 

thanx DAS.

2-piece rotors are just what they sound like: 2 seperate parts bolted/riveted into one (look at a motorcycle front brake disk). car rotors are gen made of one piece of metal, cheaper to make.

i would think that the 2 piece hub is made of a norm metal, the rotor is a metal that can better take the heat. i would check with the maker, ask about what metal is used in each part, and what is holding the 2 parts together. if they come back with t-356 aluminium (ask if virgin or recycled) or some other such crap (not sure) i MAY be able to find some specs for you (MAY!!). in the process of moving back to the states so may be a few days for an anwser, let me know.

read an art in "hot rod" a bit ago. took a 64-68 'stang (front disk rear drum) and put a brembo sport pack (4 disk w/new caliper) on the bad boy. while they had NO brake fade issue AT ALL, the best stop was only like 20-25ft better than the fac set-up. 1 to 1-1/2 car length=$12-1500 WITH NO FADE. but it looks dang sexy!!!
