    REPCO are DBA stockist...probably one of the cheapest retail prices,

    other wise try B and R brakes at castle hill...they are a toymods sponsor and give you trade prices,

    i just bought some RDA rotors from them,...and they were the cheapest by about $30,

    Thanks for that dude, it's amazing how much quotes vary! $275 is the cheapest I've got for front rotors, $340 is the most expensive.

    Question for people. Would you go for OEM rear rotors for ~$140 each, or RDA slotted for the same price? The DBA ones either aren't available or people want an f'ing killing for them. I'd rather spend that money on pads.

    Planning to see a little bit of circuit work, but mostly a daily driver.

    Hey mate,

    If you could get a price on them for me and it's good, i'll come to you!

    DBA4718 slotted and DBA719. Mainly the fronts, methinks I'm going to go RDA for the rears.

    That'd be good too. I know REPCO don't list the rears, but they do the fronts.

    A lot of the time DBA don't make all the rotors listed in the catalogue, especially the rarer stuff, they will just buy it direct from the original manufacturer and onsell it as DBA. But yes Repco have seemed the cheapest for DBA of the retail outlets.

    Yeah, I know, the rear MA61 rotors they sell are Brembo. I'm currently leaning towards the slotted RDA's for the rear, heart is kinda set on DBA4000-series for the fronts.

    Can anyone confirm if there is an actual difference between their standard slotted and their DBA4000 slotted aside from the slotting pattern and thermographic paint? Is the metallurgy different? Because they look VERY similar aside from the above differences.
