Dixcel Part No.'s for Series 2 Discs WGNC34.

I'd be pretty sure they be straight swap, OD/Offset/Thickness same.

PD-Normal Disc

SD-Slotted Disc

HD-Heat Treated Disc

HS-Heat Treated Slotted Disc

The rrp price is there too converted from yen (currently 76.6)

DIXCEL 98/8~01/12 WGNC34

Front Part No. 321 2013

pd 218.41

sd 327.62

hd 341.16

hs 450.34

Rear Part No. 325 2018

pd 218.41

sd 300.23

hd 354.81

hs 453.99

is that per rotor or per pair (assume pair)?

can anyone confirm whether brakes are the same between RS Four and RS Four S (i would assume so)?

[Stooge007]

actually, according to the Dixcel website, i believe the part numbers are (for S2 C34):

FRONT - 321 2013

REAR - 325 2016

(as opposed to 325 2018)

i am sourcing pricing from japanparts, and will pass on the details

apparently all S2 are the same, but S1 are different

for S1 C34, i believe the part numbers are:

FRONT - 321 2019

REAR - 325 2018

cheers

Fitted some RDA954S rotors and some Greenstuff pads on the weekend.

The RDA954 rotors definitely fit s2 RS4V, anyone having fitment problems, make sure the calliper is clear of the rotor (use a screwdriver for leverage, make sure the rotor is nipped up with a wheel nut so it is held tight) before tightening the calliper bolts.

[Brendan&Ana]

actual dimensions for ROTORS series 2 1999 rs4s

FRONT -

diameter 290mm

height 48mm

centre 68mm

minimum thickness 26mm

brand new thickness 28mm

REAR -

diameter 292mm

height 63mm

centre 68mm

minimum thickness 16mm ( couldnt remember exactly what measurement was here but pretty sure this was it could be 14)

brand new thickness 18mm ( couldnt remember exactly what measurement was here but pretty sure this was it could be 16)

so far from my searches nothing is exactly the same.

and from what i could see on dixcel japan website is that there are 4 or more different type of rotors between series 1 and 2 some going right through all models so it is possible that some suggestions that have been posted will work on some cars and for others it wont so make sure u do ur research b4 u buy or take some of the advice on here

[bubba]

If series 2 RS4S is the same as series 2 RS4V, then the 350Z rotors will fit.

i have had it at a brake specialists for the last 2 days and they said they will not be right 1st major difference is the thickness of the rotor od is out and height is slightly out on the 954s rotor

Agreed, I'm over it.

Stock non-slotted 350Z rotors on mine and they're fine.

Anyone found a solution for dogbones to fit 324mm GTR rotors yet?

[bubba]

Anyone found a solution for dogbones to fit 324mm GTR rotors yet?

With 33gtst/32R calipers yes, I have a solution that *should* work but haven't tried it yet. I have a set of dogbones that fit on non-4wd front hubs but they hit the lower ball joint on 4wd hubs. I have another set that are supposedly off a z32 that offset the caliper as opposed to the other ones which rotate it.

With stock calipers, not yet as I need to solve the offset issue.

Fitted up new front slotted rotors with new pads today and if it doesn't rain tomorrow I will fit new rear slotted rotors and pads then bleed brakes allround.

Which rotors did you use on the front, RDA 954S? I've had my set machined down and will be fitting them tomorrow.

[bubba]

The unmodified RDA954S's I installed are still working great with no issues.
