stock rotor weights?
I have done a search and not found anything...does anyone know FOR SURE what the weight of the stock rotors are, front and back? I no longer have my stock rotors is why I ask...I have the AEM big rotors and am wanting to go back to stock size, but would like to find something even lighter than stock, so if anyone has any info on weights, please let me know...TIA,
Jeff

nice sig . . . but that reminds me, i haven't been blown in almost a week! dammit!
anyways, what you should be more worried about is rotational inertia, not total mass. the rotational inertia from your AEM big rotor kit is probably about double that of a stock rotor. if you want to free up around 3whp, i'd switch back if i were you. especially since the big rotor kit doesn't particularly help braking all that much.

yeah, I have noticed that(it not braking any better)...I am planning on running a stock sized rotor, hopefully one that is lighter than stock, and upgrade the calipers. I like what you said about rotational inertia too.
