aftermarket rotors with hats
Does anyone know if there is a aftermarket brake rotor that will fit with the stock calipers that have HATS and not the normal hub.
I have bought rotors that were cadium plated, I have painted rotors and no matter what they still rust and look like crap after.
If i can get a set that have the anodized removable hats, like what come with aftermarket calipers,that would be sweet...

I'm not sure why you have such a bad rusting problem, but it would likely be cheaper to just replace the rotors with aftermarket 1-piece rotors every time they get rusty than go with 2-piece rotors.

My car never sees rain blah blah, so im very **** about the condition. Even with a wash and wax, the wetting of the rotors creates surface rust or they just look like crap.
I realize two piece are more for race app but i think the anodized hats would be a nice benifit to me. If i cant get just the rotors I may ugrade the whole kit but thats a maybe

Dclin, are you saying that Precision Brake made a 2 piece rotor for the 99 spec calipers. Are the rotors the same size, or are the 99 spec bigger? If memory serves me correct the 99 are bigger, so they wont fit my OEM application
An aftermarket kit (brembo etc) isnt really what i need, so if there is no rotors for the S6 perhaps ill look into finding a 99 spec kit with the PB rotors.

I haven't been following up since then, but I'm sure Precision can still make the hats and source the rotors for you - the calipers themselves were sourced through the RX7 Store.
www.precisionbrakes.com
The orginal GB price came out to around $2000 (depending on the options choosen) for the complete, front and rear kit - OE RZ/RS calipers, hardware, and the Precision 2-peice rotors. Prices for the OE parts have gone up since then, and of course the GB pricing no longer applies. I imagine it's still a excellent deal though.
Hope that helps.
