From memory they are unavailable for 3rd gens TH and earlier. I think they have a bigger diameter that the stock rotors and hence the stock calipers won't fit. Something like that. These were the ones i wanted originally. Ended up getting RDA slotted. Best breaks i ever had

im looking at V6 sized rotors for a second gen, did you do a pad change as well?
Also i found this on a link from the rda site

Yeah, im using RDA pads also. But not green stuff. Only the basic pads. Cheap as and break damn good. Bit on the noisy side but i dont care.
I dont know if the V6 rotors are any different than those used on a 4cyl. It would make sense however. Not sure if the bigger rotors will fit your current calipers though. You might have to buy bigger ones also. But yeah, im am not very familiar with 2nd gens. But i know RDA stuff is good.

All i need to fit the larger rotor is the V6 caliper bracket so the rest just bolts up.

I've got 294 slotted RDA's with EBC green stuff on my TF. Impressive combination.
If you contact EBC about rotors, RDA will get in touch with you.

I'm running the RDA slotteds with my twin pot conversion on a pair of Lucas pads. Nice combo, they're basically as good as the green stuff pads and a little over 1/2 the price of them.
The RDA's usually retail for around the $75-$90 bracket depending on where you shop.
yeah I've got RDA slotted and Bendix Ultimate upfront (normal rotors and premuim on the rear) or was it ultimate on the rear and permuim on the front... I can never remember, but it brakes a whole lot better now, especially in the fade department. (kinda the point of slotted/groved/drilled/dimpled rotors)

I just got RDA slotter rotors fitted today with Bendix Advance pads...
I have to say the differance is amazing!!! they pull up quicker and harder than i ever could on the stock rotors and the stocks constantly activated ABS if i braked hard. So far i am very impressed
