S5 N/A rotor: opinions wanted

While I was cleaning my turbo parts I decided to clean one of my old n/a rotors from before my swap. I'm not planning on using it, I'll put it up for sale/trade.

First off am I right in thinking it's a D weight not an E weight?












It has some pitting of the metal on the sides. I don't think it will effect compression...will it?

The pitting is fine. And your correct, it is a D weight. The "3" refers to the side seal placement for if you are reusing seals. You can mark them and reinstall them in the same places.

The rotor looks to be in pretty good condition. Might wanna swap out the bearings before reusing it though.
