August 21, 20188 yr #23 Author I finished the left side now and it seems okThe adjuster seems hard to get to with the rotor onI had difficulty getting the new rotor to sit flush as wellTook it for a spin it seems ok
August 21, 20188 yr #24 It's important to get the rotor to sit on the hub properly. It's too late now but you should have sanded the hub between the wheel studs to remove the rust
August 21, 20188 yr #25 Author Hi mate, I used a wire wheel on the wheel itself and also on the hub. I tried to get rid of all the rust.
August 22, 20188 yr #26 Author Thanks for everyone's replies and arronm's detailed replies with picsThe left side took about 2 hours to completeThe rotor came off quite easilyThese rotors were from DBA slotted type as wellWhoever installed them put them the wrong way around I mean left to rightFor the front I have remsa pads, I found with the 6 piston brembos, they didn't fade at Wakefield. I like these as street pads.Next I'm going to put Bendix Ultimate in the front, followed by qfm zx2800.
August 23, 20188 yr #28 I'll be doing rear rotors soon, so learned lots from this thread. Might give it all an overnight treatment with a few litres of wd40 first!
