If you're really hard up I have a good shop here in Edmonton. They found me rear rotors and control arms for my DR30, and they were here in a week. I'm sure they can ship right to you.

Can't go wrong with the DBA's.

I got the same rotors that you just listed, and even paid about $10 less per rotor, delivered to my door.(and they are great rotors, too)

Sadly, I can't say an exact source for them......I kinda had a contact directly to the North American distributer guy.

sorry, they sent me the rear rotors... they are out of the fronts. all dba has are the cross drilled and slotted. buy brakes.com can get you them if you call.

The difference is 26mm vs 30mm width. As far as adapters to run the z33 hardware, i'm not sure but I think that you can just bolt on the z33 stuff.

Yeah, that company is pretty good and has decent prices.

I think they are on board with us, too. Lemme go check right quick.

EDIT: Yup, RHD Japan is on board with NICO...you score!
