GiroDisc Upgraded Brake Rotors
GiroDisc 380mm front rotors replace the R8's factory 365mm carbon ceramic rotors with a The disc floats on drive pins rather than bolting rigidly to the hat, letting it expand with heat without warping rotor design built in the USA. The hat is 6061-T6 aircraft-grade aluminum, the disc is proprietary cast iron with a curved vane pattern that pumps cooling air through the rotor, and the drive pins ride on anti-noise spring washers so the rotor stays quiet when cold. Caliper spacers are included to fit the larger front rotors, rear rotors stay factory-sized, and the e-brake is retained. Fabspeed recommends replacing all four rotors together to keep brake bias consistent when moving off carbon ceramic.
Frequently asked
Does the GiroDisc Upgraded Brake Rotors fit my R8 V8?
This listing is specific to the Audi R8 V8 (Typ 42). Exact fitment for your year, trim and options is confirmed on your free consult before anything is ordered.
What does the price include?
The delivered price includes the part from Fabspeed USA, freight to Australia, import costs and GST. Enter your postcode to refine delivery; the final figure is confirmed on consult.
How long until it arrives?
Every Fabspeed part is made in-house at Fabspeed USA with about a one-week production lead time, then allow another 3-4 days for delivery to Australia via UPS. That freight is already included in the price.
Do I need to replace all four rotors?
Fabspeed strongly recommends it. Mixing GiroDisc iron rotors with the factory carbon ceramics changes brake bias across all four corners.
Will these fit my factory brake calipers?
Yes. Caliper spacers are included to accommodate the larger 380mm front rotors; the rear rotors keep the factory size and mounting.
Is the parking brake still usable?
Yes, the factory e-brake is retained with the GiroDisc rotors installed.
Which option should I choose?
Choose Front Rotors if you're only replacing the larger 380mm fronts, or Rear Rotors for the OEM-size rears. Many owners running the R8 on track order both to keep brake bias even after moving off the factory carbon ceramic discs.
Who installs it?
Rennen Motorsport in Adelaide, or an authorised dealer near you. Fitting it yourself may also be an option depending on the part, so raise it on your consult; professional installation is quoted separately.
Is it covered by warranty?
Fabspeed products carry the manufacturer's warranty, supported locally through Rennen Plus as the Australian principal. See our returns policy.
Can I just buy this outright, or do I need to talk to someone first?
Every enquiry, whether it's one part or a full build, starts with a free consult. We confirm the exact spec for your car before anything is quoted or ordered.
