vr6 rotors and pads

[V®6]

Can someone shed some light on DBA Rotors for me? I am looking at getting a price shortly but have no idea what to ask for as their website is confusing me a little.

DBA lists the following four models under MK3 VR6:

MK3 GTi VR6 (Early) (4/94 - 7/95)
MK3 GTi VR6 (Late) (8/95 - 98 )
MK3 VR6 (From SW 400 001) (94 - 97)
MK3 VR6 (Up to SW 400 000) (94 - 97)

All I know is my car is a 1994 VR6, and what the heck is SW 400 000???

I never figured it out when I was looking at new rotors. Instead look at the diameter of the rotor, if you have a 94 vr6 you should be running 280mm fronts. So order the 280mm DBA versions.

It's very easy to tell 280mm calipers stick out HEAPS far, and they have a curvy bar across the inner edge (closest to the centre of the hub). The new 288mm brakes have a very straight looking caliper with no weird sticky-outy bits.

How much are slotted rotors compared to stock?

Same with greenstuff pads next to stock for price?

I got quoted $140 a set for greenstuff pads, so $280 to go all round

They are talking about chassis numbers. The letter identify what model year the car is and the number is the number.
