Thanks

Devek used Coleman rotors for their front aluminum hat kits- 13 or 14 inch diameter. I recently had them quote me on making some more, and they can do it no problem. Do you have Devek's parts on your car? A few other people have been inquiring about these, and I am considering machining some new-style hats that would fit the same rotor. Let me know if you are interested..

The 993TT rotors, recall, are not too expensive in the long run. They do not last like the newer rotors from places like here:

http://www.vividracing.com/catalog/b...t-p-59615.html

But, you know, since they are nearly 4 times as much for each rotor - if the newer rotor does not last 4 times as long....

So to make the 993TT rotors work with the S4 hubs, the hats must be machined differently - with more offset. I have one set of these and I wanted to make more inexpensively. I haven't done that yet though.

Chuck, the fronts are the only ones we made- the rears used the factory rotors because of the E-brake system. I think a rear could be made, with an insert for the E-brake, but it would be more expensive than the front.
We are considering making hats for a stock S-4 and up front brake that would take the Coleman rotors, which are in the $150 ea range for a 13" (330mm). I know some folks here have recently priced others, but don't recall what those costs were, and I don't think anyone anyone found a hat being produced for our cars.
If there is enough interest, I would be willing to run some.

If you want to use the 993TT front rotors you need to change the hat the 993 offset is 40mm you need 45mm offset. Lindsey is making a hat for the 951 which will fit the 928. If you want the cross drilled rotor but in one piece the 964 rotor is the one to get.

Wayne, Greg Brown is a Coleman dealer- I can forward him the info from Coleman and he can get you new rotors. He can probably have them drop-shipped right to you. Do you have 13 or 14" size?
