Mikey mikey Mikey Ah man I am sorry, ya just had to be different didn't ya.
Funny thing, we have all read stories about cracking due to cross drilling but 1. unless it is poor machine work and 2. You are road racing (circuit courses) I highly doubt that would ever come into play.
Mike is a good guy, and the product it top notch, as everyone has seen. I hate to say it will be worth the wait (I know your brakes are squealing)
Will see you tomorrow night at Bobs

I'm not sweating mike's work at all...he called me and was a real cool guy, and apologized and offered to upgrade me....i'm just gonna be a hard-*** for the dimpled because I really want to try a set.....and even if they wouldn't crack (and i doubt they would, from what i hear) i can diffuse the notion by just getting the dimpled in the first place.
I just can't wait to get them on, lol...it's killing me, and she's my DD.
See you tomorrow night!!

Alright, is everyone in agreement or not?
Which way do you install the rotors?
1. So they spin in the direction that the slots go from the inside forward
2. So that the slots are such that they have the outer part to the slot forward.
I have seen them installed both ways, So what do you guys think? Lets see who agrees and who does not.

Hey guys just wanted to see if you all are getting the same thing that I am.
First Question is: Are they supposed to be discolered like this?

Next Question is: Anyone get what looks to be a unfinished rotor?

Other three look like this

I talked with Mike and he says that is normal, the zinc plating will wear off where the pads contact the rotors, thats inevitable, which is what I suspected, just looks like it is not coming off 100% evenly.

What is up with rotors online ive called 5 times and keep getting fax machine . Also sent them an email and no reply . I ordered a set of front rotors . And im trying to find out if they are Zinc coated .
what number are you calling? you are probably calling his fax line. ill give him a call and ask him.
when did you order? hes a one man company, so he cant get to you immediately, and hes here on west coast time.

Mike has been at the Long Beach swap meet all day since 3am this morning, so he's probably just been busy the last couple of days. I called Friday and got a fax response, then called back a little later and he picked up.
lol i wasnt worried about not getting them . I just wanted to see if they are Zinc coated . I sent an email the same night and got nothing back . But i guess ill find out when they get here =)
