    Hello brotherhood. I am thinking ahead to my next project. I want to add yellow calipers and drilled or slotted rotors to my Rosso Corsa 348 Spider. I now have 18 inch OZ wheels so I should be able to do a big brake kit but don't have my heart set on it. I saw that the 512 TR was built at some point with drilled rotors. Any chance they would fit? I'm pretty sure the rears on a 94 may be a bit odd with the larger hub. The rotor hats are big anyway. All the links over the years seem to be out of date. There is a Stop Tech big kit and possibly some Brembo rotors that would fit but the part numbers seem to be out of production. I was going to buy a new parted set of 348 calipers to repaint and preserve my originals if I can get new rotors to match the stock size. How about pure dimensions to find a rotor to fit?

    Thanks. Lots of snow here :(

    I have a brand new set of rotors in my garage. I'll try to get them measured for you.

    If in your searching you find the caliper rebuild kits.. let me know.. I'd like to have them on hand for the future.

    Sweet! Think I saw those but didn't read the description Figured they were big brakes. Haha. Just what I was looking for if a little bit overkill. :D I'll let you know how it goes. I definitely want to order my perch wrenches. Vitaloni mirror should be here soon after snow. Gotta find or make new windshield button. Second set of 4 calipers should be about 2Gs.

    Also just found upgraded stock drilled rotors on Superformance. This is really all I want. With another set of calipers to paint I will be set. :)

    Love Yellow calipers on a red Ferrari. They go together so well.

    Can't wait to see it.

    Thanks, that's the look I'm going for. Just like the SF shield. The drilled rotors are more affordable and I will not be tracking the car that often. A little more bling to show off in my 18 OZ Superleggera IIIs. ;) Just ordered another interior rear view mirror in the hopes I can actually get it and have it be the right one. Superformance has not indicated otherwise yet. No bi-adhesive button available on their site. I think the heavy duty 3M will do fine on that size pad anyhow.
