Default StopTech slotted rotors for F Sport RWD

A local shop was able to get me this rotors for my RWD F Sport:







I only know of EBC making 14" brakes for our RWD's but now StopTech has some too. These are pretty heavy!

Should I buy new brake pads too? I'm currently running Akebono's that are less than 1 year old.

I'm going to installing these on the weekend. Does anybody know the torque spec for the RWD F Sport?

I don’t have any answers for you, but those look sick! Are they 2 piece?

No they are not. That's probably why they are so heavy. I had my 2 piece OEM rotors resurfaced last year and they were much lighter than these.

The lug nuts are what holds clamps the rotors in place, 76 ft-lb.

The little screws are merely there to hold onto the rotor during installation, they are not meant to be torqued down.

According to the Stop Tech website, these are 2-piece rotors. Great find!

Not trying to burst your bubble but those rotors that you have are one piece.
Two piece rotors have bolts on the hats.
Here are the torque specs:
Front caliper bolts: 58 lb-ft
Rear caliper bolts: 40 lb-ft
Brake pad bolts Bolt: 22 lb-ft

That's what I thought.

Thanks for the torque specs.

It probably says 2 piece not to say the stoptech's themselves are, but referencing that those are to replace the oem 2 piece F-Sport rotors.
