Title: brakes...
Post by: turbo88 on November 09, 2005, 02:08:30 PM
are there any brake rotor upgrades i can do for a 4 bolt 87/88 tc? like slotted rotors or even slotted rotors with the abs ring? and if not with abs ring can i modify it somehow and just attach it on off of the old rotors?

Yeah the TC rotors are made of organinc materials, so they are pretty much one of a kind for that car.  Technically that means they last forever though, all you have to do to get rust, imperfections off is sand them.  And I'm not 100% sure, but I think cross drilling/slotting/venting them actually makes the rotor lose structural inegrity.
