Dba Vs Rda Slotted Rotors

[bugster70]

Hi guys, I'm looking at upgrading my brakes and just wondering if there is any difference in quality, performance, etc, between the DBA and RDA slotted rotors? Rotors aren't very expensive anyway so the cost isn't such an issue, it's just that these two brands keep coming up when talking about rotors and I don't know if there's much of a difference between them (although I note most members here seem to go for the DBA 4000 series rotors)?

Any advice is much appreciated!

I have heard the DBA's tend to last a bit longer, but that's only one opinion!

Im the opposite to senna I had DBA slotted and they didnt last long at all, I now have rda so time will tell.

there you go! just depends on driving styles and applications, everything varies, I personally have the pbr upgrade f&r so far so good!

I had the brembos and upgraded to the DBA 5000's, now braking is just as fun as speeding.

Ive got DBAs on the front in the standard size and they have copped an absolute flogging around the track... the pads crapped themselves but the discs held up to the punishment to my supprise, and I drive HARD on the track

I'm about to order DBA. Two piece 5000 series slotted for the front, and one piece 4000 series slotted for the rear.

I had a set of RDA's on my old car, and they were the biggest pieces of ever, in 10 000kms I had them machined 4 times, and they still shuddered, so I got rid of them and put some DBA's on and they were fantastic. The car I had them on was never track driven, just my daily driver..

I have actually hered from a number of people that the same company makes both dba and rda rotors. so I think they are both the same sh*t!
