You claimed you were the only company with curved, directional vanes. It's clear from their diagram that their rotors have curved, directional vanes.sdoow said:Would be interested to see if you can you double check with Stoptech to sustantiate your statement.
I believe that understanding is inaccurate, for several reasons. For one thing, many '91-96 NSX owners who want to upgrade are more likely to do so by way of a big brake kit with larger aftermarket calipers and rotors, rather than the '97-05 setup. Many of the rest of us are happy using the '91-96 brakes, including many of us who are using the stock 15"/16" wheels for our track tires, wheels which do not fit over the '97-05 brakes. Part of the cost of the upgrade to '97-05 brakes is not just the brake parts themselves, but also new wheels. (Stock 15"/16" wheels are easy to come by used, and are very inexpensive.) Also, track tire availability in 15"/16" sizes is much wider than for the larger wheels, and the 15"/16" sizes fit inside the car, for those of us who bring our track tires to the track while driving there on street tires. And, of course, 75-80 percent of all NSXs are the '91-96 model years with the smaller brakes. I can only guess, but I believe there would be a market for your products in the '91-96 sizes, perhaps even as large a market as for the '97-05 sizes. Since your products are also sold by (NAME OF FRAUDULENT AFTERMARKET VENDOR DELETED), you might ask that vendor how their sales of other brands of rotors break down between the '91-96 sizes vs the '97-05 sizes, to give you a better idea of the potential demand.sdoow said:It's our understanding that most NA1 owners would prefer to upgrade to NA2 brakes, that's why we don't make brake for NA1, tell us if our understanding is inaccurate.
(Note that I refer to the brakes as the '91-96 brakes or the '97-05 brakes. NA1 and NA2 refer to the 3.0-liter and 3.2-liter engines, respectively. The '97-05 model year NSXs with automatic transmissions have the larger brakes but the smaller NA1 engines. Hence the reference by model year rather than NA1 vs NA2.)
