Finally installed the Brembo 2-piece rear rotors today. ...
Quick Summary:
- $1500 for direct replacement 2-piece Brembo rear rotors
- Galvanized Steel rotors (Zinc coated for corrosion resistance)
- Rotors shaved 9.0 lbs PER ROTOR (18.0lbs for the rear axle alone!!!)
- 2-3 hour install (depending on shop labor rate)
- Reduced future maintenance costs, replacement disc only, keep same hub
- Directional veined rotors (stock are not directionally veined)

I have the carbotech AX-6 and they squeal like a spanish pig being killed, lol. I will be installing shims soon, along with new rims and tires. At which point i might be able to tell you the OEM weight of the rims. also changing the trans oil to RP

Sounds like the rotor upgrade is a good one, but there has to be a better source. If the rear rotors are $1500/set how much would the fronts be?Stoptech makes 2-piece rotors and I think they are available in our size. Whether they will fit is another question entirely, but it sounds like it would be worth asking. Losing another 40 lbs of unsprung mass would be nice, though!

for the 1500 did you also get the calipers?
if not, wouldn't the brembo package that RSC sells be better since it includes the disc and caliper.

The rear package for $1595 IS just the rotors. There is no rear caliper upgrade kit
