In order to get these you would need to call/email Rotora and ask for a authorized dealer. From there they would give you an authorized Rotora dealer.

Rotora's website is currently being reworked on, so it is best to call(909) 590-1712 or email [email protected]. They are located in Chino, CA.

I will be updating the thread soon for other Rotora Brake upgrades(Big brake kits, Stainless Steel Brake lines, and Brake pads). Also these work for 07+ Sedans and 08+ Coupes.

about the rotor...do they have to be specifically for the coupe to work? I mean, don't they just have to be 5x114 and clear the wheels?

Don't forget about thickness and radial length of the rotor surface... they have to fit into your calipers and match the brake pad surface height.

i have these on my sedans. i paid cheaper than what they MSRP at which i believe is $125.

they are awesome rotors, and i would recommend them to all of you who are looking to replace the OEM blanks!

ive had them since oct 08 and ive put on 8k+ miles on them. i paired them with hawk track pads, and the combo provides extreme braking!

yes they have to be specifically made for the coupe. the 07+ altimas have a whole different braking system than previous nissans, everything is bigger. the pads are thicker, the rotor is thicker, so they have to be made for the coupe. i wouldve bought 350z replacement rotors, but i was instructed by stoptech that they would not fit.

if anyone is interested in purchasing rotors from rotora, you can go through World One Performance. they wont have anything on their website, but just give them a call, and they will be able to help you better. and they are also an authorized rotora dealer.

Contact Garret @ World One Performance - 206-938-7975

and if you are looking to get a little discount, tell him that Andrew Mongru from One Crazy Crew referred you to him!

Will we get that same price as you? And did you pay 125 for all 4? or for a pair?

i only replaced the 2 front rotors.

125 is MSRP, so Garret should be able to get you guys a discount close to what i got them for. i got them cheaper than 125, but thats my price that i get.

call World One and ask Garret about these. he helped me find them!
