Here's where the group buy gets very complicated.
The sizes and specs of brakes and rotors are all different, so:
ES/Activ/SX/Platinum and VR are all one size
Front Rotors
Rear Rotors
Front Brake Pads
Rear Brake Pads
VRX/Olympic Ed/Aspire are all one size
Front Rotors
Rear Rotors
Front Brake Pads
Rear Brake Pads
RA another size
Front Rotors
Rear Rotors
Front Brake Pads
Rear Brake Pads
So we need 12 different part numbers and sizing.
Also DBA offers different grades and levels of brakes and pads to add to this confusion. I'll try and sort it out but any help would help.
Install is usually A$150 in Melbourne for a set of front and rear rotors and pads.
I paid A$330 for RDA slotted and dimpled front rotors and Greenstuff front and back pads.
So I paid about A$480+A$150=A$630 to get my brakes done awhile ago. I see no point in doing the rear rotors since we're not AWD no RWD.
Rather spend the money on changing brake lines.
