NOTE: The angle of the slots on the pair I have are not different side to side. Minor thing, but some people care.

You should bring one of those rotors to AMVIV.
https://www.northamericanmotoring.co...d.php?t=130838

Cut from AMVIV thread:

Ok so you're not inspired yet. You don't want to drop a G on a bbk and have no need for me and my fancy schmancy parts as you have a JCW brake kit now. Well, Mr. Snobby, I have some news for you; TCE will be showing the all new TCE Caliper kit for JCW rotor equipped cars. Huh? You read right; a totally new Wilwood SIX pot caliper kit for you JCW guys! Do I have your attention yet? Oh sure.. you want a picture. Ok, here you go;

Also in red.

OOoooo interesting...thanks for all the info and pics. Looks good Mark. Im suprised not more people have the JCW rotors...

I notice a little rust on the JCW rotors in the photos above, does that happen with other higher end rotors?

I'm here in Vegas, the display part above is here too and we're ready to hear what folks think. First thing in the morning as unpacking is going to take some time!

I think this is going to be a real nice product for some of you JCW guys. It's intended use is more street enthusiast and not hard core racer. Despite that it's on sexy caliper package and has some real benefits. I'm also banking on the aftermarket to step up a bit more on lower cost replacement rotors. With such ("ebay rotors") this will be a viable kit for the lower cost market.

I probably just bumped up the market value of JCW take offs for BBK rotor owners too!

Don't hold me to exact numbers just yet but I believe it will be $650-700 range as a kit price. *you supply the rotors of course

I don't have JCW brakes but I have been running slotted rotors front and back and never had any hum.

I have not heard that slotted rotors cause a noise.
