What FD BBK are these rotors from?

I have these rotors - does anyone know what kit they are from? I haven't see the aluminum locating pieces before -- I figure someone knows what they are from.

My thought is the Wilwood kit, possibly a Brembo setup,(although unlikely), and any other combinations......
I'm hoping the aluminum gives it away.
I can take more detailed pictures if required. I also have two different width of hats - the ones mounted, and a second set which is approx 1/2 the thickness?
The first picture shows it is a 355mm disc,(14"). It is 1.25" thick. The second picture is the two rotors, opposite sides,(a little dark on the upper left - sorry), and the extra set of hats - which other than thickness, are identical. The third picture is a side shot - something rubbed on the black anodized finish - and it is the same on both rotors. The last picture shows the two different thickness hats.
Any help/ideas is much appreciated. If you have pictures, even better!
-Bob

i don't remember any company marketing a 14" bbk for the FD. Most are 13" front rotors.

Are you sure its from an FD?

I'm about 90% certain. It came along with another RX-7 and only RX-7 parts came with it. I'd be surprised if its not for an RX-7 as the pattern including the retaining screw is in the same spots.
That being said - I'm fairlu sure there have been 14" kits offered - but we likely rarely see them as they require 18" rims depending on the caliper, (i.e. most all calipers would require an 18" rim).

Can anyone back up the Rotora call? Any pictures of older Rotora kits? I'm still at a loss on these...
