Default DC5R front rotor replacement?

Anybody know what the USDM front rotor replacement would be for the 300mm rotors off the JDM DC5-R with brembos?

NSX?
TL?
RL?

Your choices are getting Mugen active gate ITR rotors or Project Mu 1 piece or 2 piece rotors which Mackin distributes.

That was 350Z Track "pads"

I spoke with BREMBO USA and they don't have anything for us here for rotors.

There has to be an OEM application, we just haven't found one yet... If you take the measurements, you can probably find and oem app randomly for another vehicle.

I have heard the TL Brembo pads are replacements.

the TL which is a big sporty sedan with those huge brakes has the same brake pad as a light, sport compact? How fast DOES the DC5 stop???

That is what I Heard... so don't take that for truth... There are so few people that I know of that have the DC5R brakes that it's still speculation to my knowledge... or at least that is the impression I get.

I'm looking for replacements for the future also.

This is my knowledge as well. Project Mu rotors are difficult to get, or at least were when I was trying to get them 9 months ago. Everytime I talked to someone, they always confused them with DC2-R rotors..
