Ok Guys I Need Some Literature From All Yall "SMARTER THEN ME PEOPLE" which is basically Everybody..HAHA. Im Wondering if I Take The Rotors Off a RT and Put Them On My SXT(V6 RWD) Is It Gonna Make a Diff in My Stopping Power, Or Do I Need To Just Poney Up Some Dough For Rt Calipers Too? Thanks Ahead Of Time To All LX MEMBERS for Your Responses.

In theory, you would get better stopping power from larger rotors, since you're clamping further away from the axis (kinda like leverage, in a way) - but that assumes the V6 calipers will fit on R/T rotors, like gameover said - and I can't see how they would.

Even if they would, and even looking at the theory, it's not going to be a big difference - probably not a noticeable one.

So you're looking at rotors and calipers at the minimum, but everything I've seen says that they swap right on.

Yeah, but with the R/T rotors your adding more weight too right?
