Default rotor thickness

The next thing is the brake pulsation I have. I replaced the pads a year ago or so and there is still plenty of material there. But, I don't think I performed the job correctly. In hindsight, I should have had the rotors turned at the same time. So, I will do the job again.

What is the rotor min thickness (again it is the fronts, 98 LS)?

I'll replace the rotors (Brembo, plain) if I have to but I rather turn them if possible.

Thanks in advance.
i think 26mm was min thickness...
