[Euro] Brake disc size/replacement

[aaronng]

Hi everyone,

Couldn't find info with a search. Has anyone replaced their discs with an aftermarket one of the same size? What are the dimensions as well?

I'm looking at DBA's rotor lineup. The 4000 series looks yummy.

Diameters front 300 mm, rear 260 mm (carpoint.com.au) -- used to have the width somewhere, but can't find it at the moment...

Thanks tobster. I need to find out the hub size and depth too.

I think with DBA you just need to find their PDF catalogue on their website, and you just need to look up the car -- part numbers and everything should be there.

I'm sure I've found it before but you might need to do a bit of digging...

Found it: you can get the specs in their International Catalogues:

A = Diameter
B = Original Height
C = Original Thickness
D = Min. Thickness
E = Centre Hole
F = No. of Bolt Holes

EURO 2.4L i-VTEC 2004 - on F 2510 Standard Vented 300 48 28 26 64 5
2510 SL Slotted Left-Hand
2510 SR Slotted Right-Hand
Rear disc fits both 2004 models R 2511 Standard Solid 260 49 9 8 64 5
( rear hat diameter is 154 mm ) 2511 SL Slotted Left-Hand
2511 SR Slotted Right-Hand


(Sorry for the bad cut and paste. Incidentally, If you compare specs, it looks like the Euro actually has the front disks from the older Accord Type R!)

Also, anyone who's thinking about a brake upgrade might like to have a read of the articles at:

Lots of technical information about what to do, what not to do, and dispelling myths -- which means saving money instead of spending for unnecessary upgrades.
