    Default New brake rotors

    I was thinking of getting some new brake rotors as mine are screwed. Would any of you buy them off ebay? Where would you go for the best deal?

    Gday Marz, I haven't ever purchased car parts through eBay so I have no experience there. I get all my parts from Coventrys..good range, decent price and you get exactly what you ask for...not to mention they carry genuine Holden parts too.

    If you were to get them off eBay then the postage cost would be hideous. Unless you can find some locally.... I just got them from supercheap. They have DBA ones there.

    Yes i got all new rotors all round, costly but it had to be done since my old ones were illegal. I got DBA ones at 60$ ea, but i was lucky because i know ppl :P
    I looked on ebay, there dosent seem to be too many selections for the VN in rotors.

    I wouldnt worry about ebay for that sort of stuff.
    Ring around to get the best price on DBA rotors.

    if you are really worried about price, go to wreckers like pick 'n' payless dont know if you have something like that in perth, but worth a squirt. you can find grandma's written off lexcen with only 150000 kays or so, most of the time. all the parts on those finds are generally pretty good.

    I actually ended up getting these and He must have a partner here in perth as I can pickup and not pay any postage costs. They also come with bendix pads.

    Now I just need to get a Gregorys so I can put them on

    Was that $85 each with pads Marz ?

    As for fitting, you will need wheel bearings too.
