[CU2] Can you get DBA 4000 T3 rotors?

[iimarco]

I've been trying to find DBA 4000 T3 rotors for my 08 CU2, the part my mate ordered for me had a diameter of 300mm which is 20mm smaller than the OEM, is this right or is there not T3s for this model?

If not what are some good upgrades from OEMs? Looking mainly for slotted, something similar to T3s would be awesome.

Sorry, didn't realise transmission had different size rotors, my car is MT btw, but the current ones are 320

[shmivic]

^ that's right. CU2 auto has smaller brakes.

You can get onto the DBA website and do a model specific search. Usually the DBA gold series rotors are the way to go for a slight upgrade over OE

[Fredoops]

DBA (and EBC for that matter) don't produce different sized rotors for the CU2, does not distinguish between AT or MT,

***NEITHER DOES HONDA!***

CL series (7th gen) accord had 2 different brake rotor sizes (280-ish & 300), because some UK bound accords had Lucas calipers and smaller rotors (in the k20 versions) where as type S versions has the Normal/Nissin Calipers and 300mm rotors

CU series (8th gen) share the same caliper across the range.

The 320mm brake rotor thing is a bit of a myth, see this for brake disk part numbers:

UK part number (all the same between 2.4 EX, 2.4 S, and 2.4 Type S)
PFKL2066284 front brake (auto transmission)
PFKL2066284 front brake (manual transmission)

Holland part number
PFKL2066284 front brake (auto transmission)
PFKL2066284 front brake (manual transmission)

US part number Acura TSX
45251-TA1-A01 front brake (auto transmission)
45251-TA1-A01 front brake (manual transmission)
They are the same part numbers, so how could they be different sizes??

Anyway for the CU2 & DBA:
Front is 300mm flat, part number DBA2510
Rear is DBA2511


T2 Slotted is good enough, unless you are tracking no need for the 4000 series.

I do not remember any part number differences between the 320mm and 300mm, it's likely a measurement anomaly (happy to be proven wrong)

i have never tracked my euro but i have the DBA 4000 on my euro - and they are amazing rotors. i just have stock pads and they are tops.

Very over the top for daily drive to work but awesome buy.... got them coz they look awesome really... lol

Highly recommend the 4000 if you wanted to do any sprinted driving or whatever. if your cruising round - get them because they look sweet. otherwise T2

For what it's worth, dba do produce brakes specifically for the cu2. They are 320mm on the front and 305 on the rear. I've just measured my 09 AT and they are indeed 320 & 305.

[DreadAngel]

They're talking about front v front...

Yes but its stated that 320mm is a myth. Im just saying it aint.
