Hi
i´m looking for Front slotted rotors, or trying to find OEM rotors and getting them slotted, but they are extremly hard to find up here, due to the fact that the RalliArt is too new a model here.
I got at tip that the OEM rotor is the same size as the Outlander 03+, they are on the other hand really easy for me to get my hands on, was wondering if anyone could confirm if the rotors are the same on the RalliArt?
Measurements are 294diam/24thickn/46height/69hubcenter/5bolt

Would really appreciate some help with this.

Do your brake calipers have single or twin pistons?

As far as i know the RA caliper has 2 pistons.

Hello Christer.

In Australia we can buy New Disc Rotors from:
DBA -- Disc Brake Australia

You can cross check the Ralliart dimensions with Outlander here:
Online Catalogue

DBA has a Distributor in Sweden:DBA Sweden Distributor Pean

Link = peansweden.se/

I hope this helps you Christer.

Thanks Sam`
Í´ve been in all kinds of online catalogues, incl PEAN, but the thing that always throws me off is some detail, like: the modelname seldome is right, or the year.
The DBA says 2007-09, the only facts i can find, since the model is new here is that everything from 09 - on fits, but not earlier - makes me a bit unsure & i start grasping at straws..calling on the collective knowledge of the CJ forum, since its not a new car/model to you all.

The car isnt even in our own online sparepart listings here yet.

The measurements seem right though.

Thanks
Christer

Just saw this advert on V-Sport's forum on EvoOz (link: http://www.evolutionoz.net/forums/index ... opic=51357 ).

John@V-Sport wrote:Brembo have released a 4 piston Brake Kit for the ralliart lancer.

the kit consists of:

4 piston Monobloc Caliper
365mm x 29mm Drilled Disc
Alloy hats and brackets
pads
Braided lines
Fluid
$3995.00

ps. I am not affiliated with V-Sport other than the fact that I am a customer who went to them today to get my Ferrdo DS2500 brake pads installed on my X.

Hey Jeff.

Nice find and good of you to show and advise those who might be interested, albeit the price.

I wonder how similar they are to what you have as standard fitment on your EVO.

I wouldn't be surprised if they are very similar or identical other than offset etc.

Sam.

I don't know enough about them to answer but I asked in the thread

On another note, it sounds expensive but I'd say it's comparable to OEM pricing considering Mitsubishi wanted $1k per rotor for my Evo, and that's not including the caliper , lines, etc... but the dimensions sound very similar.

Well I finally finished Stripping, Painting, Rebuilding & Fitting my RA Front Brakes with DBA 4000 6x6 Wipe Rotors.

Just waiting on the Braided Lines....hopefully tomorrow..... :lol:

I got my new front rotors on now, i finally found the right ones.
The stock front rotors are the same as on the Airtrek, and the pads are the same as on the Evo 2, 3 and a couple of other Mitsus.
So now i´ve got slotted original, (treated against rust, cant find the word to translate, but you´ll know), rotors and Redstuff pads in the front.
They really bite when they´re hot, but they heat up pretty quick, even in daily driving conditions.
Just a bit worried about the pads eating up the rotors
