I got actual diagrams for the pads from Rotora today...
So I have exact measurements and pad shapes to work with...
The funny thing is, they didnt know their own FMSI numbers, only the part numbers for their pads... oh well...

Once you find out the pad number you should check out Porterfield. I ran them on a car of comparable weight to the Z and they performed fantastic through the Dragon on multiple occasions. They can be expensive but I thought their performance made the pain of price go away.

once I figure out the FMSI number then I can get every pad for them...
Like I said, im pretty sure I got the number figured out, just need to confirm it with someone...

IMHO - the pad selection is not as great as some other kits on the market... Stop TEch, Brembo... If pad selection is a large factor for you, there are literally dozens of pads available for the stop tech BBK's... Its looking like a handfull for the Rotora...
I am waiting to hear back from Endless and Project u about pads for their kits...
But, from what I have found from the Rotora Pads for these kits, they are the same as some AP Racing Kits...
Some other pads I found for the AP Racing 6 Piston Kit (which is same as this Rotora 6 Piston Kit): Ferodo DS2500 Street, Ferodo DS3000 Race Comp, Porterfield R4S High Performance Street,

I am 95% sure I have the correct hawk numbers / FMSI for the Rotora Pads... Im going to talk with Hawk about it tomorrow...
THey look like they are .02" - .01" in difference in width / height for one pad... the thickness, the hawk ones are .1" thicker then the rotora thickness spec they sent...
For the rear, I am finding the closest one to be just about perfect width, but the hight is almost .5" taller... the hawk are thinner...
Ill know for sure tomorrow...
