G'day Zookers,
So I'm looking at doing a disk brake upgrade with some slotted rotors & found these on evilbay, I'm pretty sure they are the same for the SV420 & SV620 can anyone confirm this before I grab them?

Cheers
Gus

They both (SV420 and SV620) have the same genuine part number for the front rotor. I don't know if the GV (SQ420 and SQ625) are the same.

Cheers 303zuke, the rear drums were the same for the SV620 & SV420. Mine have a few score marks in them & figured the slotted rotors would be a nice upgrade.
 Congrats, you just bought this item.

I doubt a sierra or vitara will be able to apply the same level of abuse that my 300 could. So either should be fine

Heat ? Fucks me. The DBA rep was given a few of the pieces along with the hub sections, and thats as far as it went. They just ignored me till I went away.
They were vented cross drilled and slotted DBA golds. I've since seen many examples of the cross drilled holes cracking, and allowing the rotors to warp.

yeah i've seen a few examples of cracking cross drilled rotors on rice burners, hence why i went with the slotted one.
$130 more for ones with holes in them.
