Haven't gotten the rear rotors in yet Steve. I'll let you know when that's done. It probably won't be for 2-4 weeks. The clutch is going in the shop 3rd week of Feb. and I'm out of town from 9-16 Feb.

Cool, I will keep you posted also!

 

Steve, If they come in this week and I get some time, I'll go ahead and mock them up. I'm waiting on Suncoast right now...

Can someone explain the diff between floating and non-floating rotors? What's the performance diff between them?

 

The way it was explained to me is that heat in the rotor can cause it to go out of round/run-out, and cause jutter as it fights to retain its shape against the pad. Floaters allow for compensation of this issue.

I may be wrong in that inerpritation, but I "thought" that's what the guy at Wilwood told me years ago at SEMA.

Your probably right Mike, but I thought it allowed the rotor expand and contract easier than a 1-piece rotor since the rotor is its own piece and isn't connected to the hub itself.

 

prefer the solid or two piece pedal feel. floating rotors seem to have a slightly spongy feel.

 

Adam, That's correct. The two piece design allows the caliper to push the rotor where it needs it to go without transfering that motion to the pedal and steering wheel.

Oak, I've heard the same exact thing about the floating rotor design.
