I referenced a raced out Supra for that, because there was no indication stamped on the rotor.

yes, the vanes are "supposed" to point forward, but then again they do nothing for modern brakes other than look good, so i guess it really doesnt matter.

chandler is right...i need to flip my rotors cuz my internal vanes are straight up and down...not slanted backwards...means that my slots need to point like this \ => front
