Girodisc A1-232 Front Rotors for 2012+ Nissan GT-R (R35)
A1-232
The Girodisc system is a direct replacement for the OE disc when used with any 62mm or shorter brake pad made for the Brembo type M caliper. The factory pad height is 66mm and will NOT work with this rotor. We do this for two reasons, first and foremost the pad prices of the shorter pads are significantly less than the OEM size pads. The Ferodo DS2500 pads that we sell for this application are 59mm and $120 less than the 66mm versions, a significant savings we'd like to pass along to our customers. Secondly the larger hat and smaller rotor annulus result in a lighter overall rotor with minimal drawbacks in braking performance.

Description
The central hat section of the disc is made from 6061-T6 aircraft specification aluminum. The disc is made from cast iron to the same specification and material as used by professional racing organizations. It is a curved vane design, developed in racing to act as a centrifugal pump to force cooling air through the disc.
The rotor and hat have a floating mount system, which utilizes 10 high strength alloy steel drive pins, manufactured by Girodisc to our own specifications and cadmium plated for a long lasting corrosion resistance. These pins take the load from braking actions while maintaining the axial and radial float between the hat and disc. In order to keep the rotors from making noise when cold, the pins are mounted with anti-noise spring washers on the rotor side which allow the rotor to grow with heat expansion but eliminate the rattle and noise associated with floating rotors. This float also allows the rotor to self center between the pads.
Once the Girodisc system is in place, simply replace the cast iron rotor when needed.
When used with performance pads and hi-temp fluid, you have what amounts to a truly amazing solution to overheating or warping rotors.
Sold/priced in pairs.
