CU2 Brakes

[MrHeeltoe]

Just FYI, the CU2 and the CL9 and CL7 all use the same front rotors and pads (at least the same sizes). They also have the same master cylinder spec. The pistons in the rear calipers on the CU2 are larger by about 4mm one source tells us.

This is not true. What you have said may be true for some markets only.

For NZ:

- 2006 facelift CL9 has 300mm Front Ventilated Rotor and 300mm Rear Solid Rotor.

- 2009+ CU9 has 320mm Front Ventilated Rotor and 305mm Rear Solid Rotor.

In theory CU2 has better brake specification but that may be offset by its weight increase over the CL9.

isn't slotted rotors more to dispurse heat than increase braking power on std pads.

Slotting increases the bite from the pads, as well as de-glazing them. New pads are a much cheaper way to go.

hahhaha after you mentioned about the brake dust I've been noticing and your absolutely right.........even after a hoon session theres no barke dust.

man the CU2's really move when your on an empty tank. It's like it was built to run on empty : ).
