they look awesome. i was a fan of the old ones as well...the fitment sets'em off though.
are using extended brackets or spacers for it being so flush?

Yeah I have track rotors and brackets, but the inner pad drug so I took them off. I think the brackets were the issue though. Do the pads overhang like the Z33 track rotors do?

well i haven't really noticed any drag so far with these brackets. so we'll see when i replace my pads.
if i can find a pic ill post up the brackets i had made

and with these rotors the pads don't really overhang. if by overhang you mean the space from the bottom of the pad to the edge of the rotor surface towards the center. the 3000gt calipers use a very similar if not the same pad that the z calipers use, so everything pretty much lines up and mates up well

Not feeling either wheels: too modern body shape of S14. Maybe next wheels will be better.

As far as i know, yes the fronts will fit without any modifications, now rears, i dont exactly know, depends on your tire size. i knew a guy that ran saleen 10s in the rear of his s13 with a 10mm spacer, stretching 225s. but im sure he was pulled. tho.

but, the white ones are going on my S13, so we'll see lol.
