DBA926 & DBA924 dimensions

[hotgemini]

'ello,

I'm after detailed dimensions of the DBA926 and DBA924 rotors...

Thickness of the mounting surface, inside diameter of the 'mounting bell' section, etc etc etc... As you can guess I'm looking at these for a brake upgrade...

Which leads into my next question, when I'm playing with brakes (been down this road before I have...but never on my own car before) I normally ring around the parts supply stores, find one that has the rotor I'm looking at in stock, then go down with a stub axle and hub and do a rough test fit...

I'm wondering if there is a better way?

Do you guys have a big database somewhere with technical drawings of the dimensions of your rotors?? and if so, who do I have to bribe to get access to it?

1. click dba banner above
2. Click "product catalogue" (on left hand side)
3. Select Manufacturer
4. Scroll down until you get the right model/year/series etc
5. Measurements are provided beside part number
(drawing at top shows what each measurement is)

:D Job done :D

Okay... now southo.. I know you are a forum moderator, so I will be careful with what I say here... but... if you think logically about this... how do you think I selected two part numbers to query without locating them in a catalogue?? I'll admit I could have been guessing or stabbing in the dark, but as the case may be I was looking for more detailed information than contained within the catalogue.

Don't hold back dude :D

I was trying to get them some more click thru's

(and keep this topic at the top for you) :D

Before the introduction of the Chinese disc copying machine this would have been very easy.

Email me with your real name and contact details and I can help you out will this information.

It looks like it is going to be MIGHTY close.... nothing like upgrading from 239x10 to 296x32mm

Okay, I've got most of it worked out, but I can't understand the hieroglyphs.
