RR-Racing Brake Setup Notes

RR-Racing Brake Setup Notes

These are notes that I’ve taken for the big brake kit (BBK) setup on my 2015 Scion FR-S. I took these notes to help future-Guyon when some component inevitably needs replacing.

Rotors

These are the details of the rotors that came with the kits from RR-Racing.

  Front Rear
Diameter 326mm (12.8”) 315mm (12.4”)
Thickness 30mm (1.20”) 20.8mm (0.82”)
Material Cast Iron, high carbon Cast Iron, high carbon
Coating Hat Coating E-Coating – black high temperature coating Corrosion resistant electroplating
Bracket Material Aerospace Grade Billet Aluminum Aerospace Grade Billet Aluminum
Compatability 2004 WRX STI OR a 2017+ 86/BRZ with the performance package. Both have 5x100 lug pattern. 2017+ 86/BRZ with the performance package (Part #26700CA000) but are not from a 2004 STI - they are too wide. The correct rotors are from a 2008-2017 STI. However, if you purchase regular brand 08-17 STI rotors the bolt pattern will be wrong (5x114.3). DBA dual drills those rotors for 5x100 applications. DBA Part# 42656S-10.
