rotor blades

Hi guys,
I have to replace my front disk rotors and I was wondering if these would fir my Japanese VX

I asked the seller that question and he replied "yes", but if I check these original disk rotors...

There`s a difference in shape isn`t it?

Ask him if the rotor pictured is the exact one you're bidding on or ask him to e-mail you a pic of the actual rotor being auctioned. Sometimes generic pics are used.

or get the cross drilled aftermarket rotors. Someone overseas bought some in Australia I think.

Hi dutchie,
Not sure if you purchased the advertised discs if not have a look at the EBC web site. They produce the part drilled vented discs that look good and improve braking they also produce a low dust pad for the VX I have all the part numbers if you want.
Best regards
David Wiltshire.

Serge,

Something like that I would not buy from Ebay. People on Ebay will say whatever you want to hear. Once they have the money, good luck hearing from them again.

Search the old forum. There should be a brake upgrade thread there. Someone here (Cryk?) bought some crossdrilled rotors from a place online. I had it book marked but tossed all of my VX related bookmarks since I sold mine.

BTW, I think I need to ask you about the Catz HIDs again... long story.

Thanks Dave!;Dy; I`d be really happy if you could send me the numbers!

Paul good to hear from you again, I hope you could hold on to your VX, yeah I reckon you`re right about the e-bay thing.:(
Oh yeah ask me whatever you want.

Sincerely,
Serge

Hi Dutchie,
The front part drilled and vented discs are EBC part number D637
Low dust SUV front pads DP6973
Low dust SUV rear pads DP6974
A number of fellow Lotus owners have changed to EBC products and have been pleased with the results.
To find the web site I just typed EBC into the Address bar they are a worldwide company
Best regards
