J30 and Q45 brakes??

[DominickJ30]

Are they interchangeable? I am pretty sure its the same parts but need someone to verify.

Front J30 and 90-96 Q45 are the same......pad compounds are differentRear are different! in rotor/caliper/pads.

[DominickJ30]

Thanks for the fast response. I was about to order some Q45 rotors and would have been SOL. Thanks for the heads up.

Rear rotors are the same as FY33. Call Joe. I really like my Stillen Brembos from him, but they are drilled.

Brembo blanks drilled by stillen??

I think theyre just brembo drilled rotors that are retailed by stealin.

AZhitman hooked me up with SP Slotted rotors ~1.5 - 2 years ago for my j30. I can't speak for him, but if he can still get them, they rock!!!!

No warp in that time, and some serious panic braking situations. I put AC Delco durastop ceramic pads on the corners. Is a great combo. The durastops have serviced well on several vehicles and have great grabbing power. they also last forever.

Wife had a panic stop for an old granny, 60+ to zero complete panic stop for the wife. She couldn't believe it stopped that fast. Still no warping. Worth the $$$s. They do growl a bit when braking. Supposed to be stock weight after slotting.

why not just go aftermarket and get some cross drilled units? i put these onto my J30 about 3 years ago and 60K later i have had no problems and they work great, no brake fade... here's some pics of the brakes before i installed them...

i combined them with pads from axxis, metal matrix and phenomenal braking going up and down mountains when i was living in utah/colorado







not sure how much of the brake rotor you can see in the pic but here's a pic of the car after install...

Thanks for posting that...... glad to hear your experience was good

[chiller]

no probs...

forgot the exact cost of them but the rotors were bought from summit racing online and i THINK they were going for about 75-85 per rotor, this was back in 2003...

Had those on front of my Q for the last 55,000 miles and another set before that and another set before that and another set before that.

Been using drilled Power Stops for about 230,000 miles.

yeah, I've seen rotors like that for about the same thing now...not too much of a price difference, but here's a couple links of prices
