Originally posted by MCubed45 i have GSX caliper but i have AEM rotors.. they never seated completely properly and slowly got worse vibration under hard braking over time. my car's a 1995 (8/94 build date) so i'm prolly the most fucked up as far as parts. with the AEM's the caliper is offset with a bracket so that may have made it possible to use the wrong rotors.
I have AEM "big" GSX rotors and 1995 GSX calipers on my 1995 GST with no problems. It was definitely tight the first time, but once everything settled in and I tightened it all down a few times, it works perfectly now.
Vibration is caused by uneven heating of the rotor, due usually to incorrect pad breakin, shitty pads, uneven lug nut torque, or rotor not seated against the hub properly.
