So far, all the pics that I've seen that show the rotors, showed cross drilled rotors. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/mad.gif)
Correct me if I'm wrong, but the C5 Z06 still used solid rotors? |

Ok, let me solve the Porsche rotor question once and for all. I just got off the phone with Tom Charlesworth, who is one of the most recognised Porsche mechanics in the US (as well as being on the PCA tech commity and answering technical support for Porsche North America on 924/944/968 cars). He is Porsche trained and has been involved with Porsche racing efforst, so I think we can trust his answer on this.
His statement is: FACTORY Porsche cross drilled rotors have pilot holes cast in, but then are machined to finish them off after casting. Kevin, I'll let you post this on to cornercarvers as I don't have an account there. |
