Drilled rotors

I've done a Google search and can't find anyone that has drilled rotors for a 08 G-37 yet. Are the 08 sizes larger or the same size as a 07 or 06? Could be too early after they have come out for these, but I find that hard to believe.

PD

On the G37 S the Rotors are bigger than on the previous generation. I think that you can see the spect on Infiniti's website.
14" front 13.8" rear

E-mail companies and tell them you're interested.

I've been doing that and most of them say maybe eventually, blah blah

Has anyone ever had the original rotors drilled by a machine shop? Just wondering if that was an option>

well unless we let these companies know, they won't know if it's even worth the cost to produce them.



"Thanks for your inquiry. This generation Infinity is so new we currently do not have a replacement rotor available. Depending on market demand, we will certainly consider it.
If you know anyone who wants to order a couple of hundred of them right now, we’ll start tomorrow!
Again, thanks for thinking of our products." - Performance Friction


"We appreciate your input and has added your request to our forum under "new
development" so it will be easier for us to track the feasibility for
further development.
Thanks" - Racing Brake


"According to our notes, the G37 has 355 x 32mm fronts and 350 x 20 rears. The fronts should be no problem, but the rears may prove difficult. I'm referring to two piece rotors. We wouldn't have anything in one-piece for some time.
If there is some demand, we would be interested in doing these." - Girodisc

I dont know of anyone who has done this and I definitely would not do that. Drilled rotors are know to crack anyway and I would think that doing it yourself would pretty much guarentee that would happen. Slotted are much better.

I wouldn't even attempt to do it my self. I do like the slotted look but like all the replys, it looks like it may be sometime before anyone comes out with them.
Guess I'll have to find another area to spend my money on LOL

Talk to Brake Performance. They took a set of stock rotors and dimpled and slotted them for me. They can also drill them. Whatever you want. Reasonably priced too. They are not on the web site but call them up. They did them for my a month ago.
