How do the slots on these EBC rotors help my brakes?

The progressively angled slots on these EBC Ultimax rotors serve two main purposes. They help pull in cooler air to keep your brakes from overheating, and they also sweep away brake dust and debris. This combination helps maintain consistent braking performance and can extend the life of your brake pads.

Will these slotted rotors be noisy?

EBC designed these Ultimax rotors specifically to offer the benefits of slotted rotors without the excessive air noise typically associated with them. The progressive angle of the slots helps to minimize noise while still providing improved cooling and dust clearing.

What brake pads are recommended for these rotors?

These EBC RK Series front rotors are designed for use with FMSI pad number D166. This ensures good compatibility and performance when paired with the appropriate brake pads.

About this part

Product Details

The EBC Ultimax RK Series rotors are a solid choice for your 1979-1983 Nissan 280ZX, especially if you're looking for improved braking performance without the usual noise associated with slotted rotors. These front rotors use a unique, progressively angled slot design. This design helps pull in cooler air to keep your brakes working at their best, even during harder stops. It also does a great job of clearing away brake dust and debris, which helps maintain maximum pad grip and can even extend the life of your brake pads.

These are vented rotors, measuring 252mm in diameter with a 20mm thickness and a 252mm center hole diameter. They are designed to be a direct replacement for your original equipment, meaning they should fit right without any modifications. The slotted pattern is specifically engineered to reduce the air noise often heard with other slotted rotor designs, giving you a quieter driving experience. They are intended for use with FMSI pad number D166, ensuring good compatibility with common brake pad types.
