The GiroDisc Front Rotors are a lighter, two-piece floating replacement for the OE front discs on the Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 (6th Gen) and Cadillac CTS-V. The OEM rotor uses a pillar vane design that heat soaks easily and weighs 32.5 lbs (14.7 kg); GiroDisc uses a shorter annulus ring with directional vanes.
Key Features
- Curved vane design, developed in racing, acts as a centrifugal pump to force cooling air through the disc
- Floating mount lets the rotor self centre between the pads
- Anti-noise spring washers on the rotor side allow for heat expansion and eliminate floating rotor rattle
- Only the cast iron rotor needs replacing once the system is fitted
Specifications
- Position: Front
- Construction: Two-piece floating
- Weight: 28 lbs (12.7 kg) fully assembled

Note A different brake pad with a smaller annulus (pad swept area) must be used. The pad shape is common to other Camaro and Corvette applications with 6 piston calipers.
