Any recommended workshops to help change them and at the same time service my Calipers and change the Brake Fluid?
Roughly how much?
Thank you.
Just a question, but, why a used rotor? You'd still have to skim before replacement. When it comes to the brakes, I'd rather get a new rotor have peace of mind (hopefully there's no warping on the used set or ... etc...).

Thanks for reply.
I wanted to buy a new Brembo Max. But Bro Bravo not selling anymore. My current rotor already 160,000km. Already have about 0.5mm to 0.8mm "Step". Meaning my brake pads (3rd set) already "grinded" off the disk surface that much.
Intend to drive for another 1 year or so. So don't want to spend too much.
But I guess you are right, safety first.
Any lobang for new Disk Rotors at reasonable price?

bro adnoH80 also referred to a shop where he got rotors cheeply.
only use for one year, go to want to sell section to look tru the pages of posts... I think someone was selling the entire stock brake system for $80. front left and right sets. you can buy over and resell the calipers, pads, hoses for a few bucks and recover cost.

Hey Vacuum,
I still have my stock ES5 callipers, brake pads and rotors in my storeroom. The condition of the rotors are still quite ok. If you are considering a cheap alternative for the remaining 1 year of drive, just PM me.

May have to order... try Thian Seng or Tanli
Brembo Blanks shud have the size u want. may need to drill the pcd holes separately.
AP can go to places like Espace, Choon's, or Tan Lim Motors, etc to enquire/order.

6-pot
Thanks MCDS for adding the picture.... damn swee...
but I think surely must upgrade the brake pump, at least use the DC5 or EP3 one with the larger (I think 1 inch) piston else will have spongy brake feel.
I am thinking, did anyone change the brake master pump? Price? Will ask my workshop on monday.
