Does the parking brake still work with the GiroDisc Rear Rotors for Lotus Emira?

Yes. GiroDisc states that the GiroDisc Rear Rotors for Lotus Emira retain the functionality of the factory parking brake. They are a direct replacement for the stock rear discs, so the parking brake, calipers and ABS all carry on working as Lotus designed them.

How do the Emira rear rotors differ from the fronts?

The rear rotor is smaller at 350mm by 32mm, against 370mm by 32mm at the front, and it uses 48 curved vanes where the front ring has 72. Both share the same 30mm minimum ring thickness and the same anodized aluminum hat construction.

Which part number replaces the Emira rear rings?

GiroDisc names D2-388 as the replacement ring pair for this rotor. The rings bolt to the existing aluminum hats with new hardware, so once the original iron reaches 30mm or shows a crack running to its edge, only the rings need to be bought.

Where is the GiroDisc Emira rotor manufactured?

GiroDisc makes all the major components in-house at its facility in Bellingham, Washington, from domestically sourced materials. That covers the anodized aluminum hats, the high-carbon iron rings and the cadmium-plated drive pins that join them, so one factory controls the whole assembly.

Should the Emira be driven gently after the new rotors go on?

Yes, until the rotors are bedded in. GiroDisc recommends a bed-in procedure for new discs before hard use. Completing it on a quiet road before the first fast drive or track session gives the brakes a consistent, predictable response from the first stop.

GiroDisc Rear Rotors for Lotus Emira

GiroDisc’s Rear Rotors for Lotus Emira bring the two-piece floating design to the back of the mid-engine Lotus, in a 350mm by 32mm size that drops straight in where the factory discs sat. GiroDisc also confirms that they keep the factory parking brake working as designed. GiroDisc machines the ring from its own high-carbon iron casting and the hat from black anodized 6061-T6 aluminum, all in Bellingham, Washington. Pair them with the GiroDisc fronts and the Emira carries lighter, matched discs at every corner.

Bolt-On and Go

The GiroDisc Rear Rotors for Lotus Emira are a direct replacement, so fitting them is a matter of removing the old discs and installing the new assemblies on the hubs with the original calipers. Inside each ring, 48 curved vanes pull air in at the hub and push it out through the disc. Spring clips and Belleville washers let the ring float under heat while staying quiet on the street.

Additional Information

The Bulletproof Automotive website contains many thousands of products purchased in multiple different currencies. All of the prices are entered manually and accurately at the time of entry. Due to the consistently fluctuating international exchange rates, at times prices may not be able to be honored at their original intended rate. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, unfortunately our website is unable to compensate dynamically for what can at times be volatile changes in the cost of items due to currency values fluctuating, changes in prices from suppliers, changes in shipping and import duties, and other factors. Rest assured that any order you place on line will be at zero risk to you in this area. If in the event your order cannot be fulfilled at the original intended website price we will offer you a 100% refund, no questions asked. We will continue to do our best to maintain updated prices and we will always continue to offer our price match guarantees as well to ensure our prices are always the best for you. In short, prices may change without notice. It is always advised to give us a call prior to placing your order online to confirm availability and to confirm current pricing.

Shipping Policy

Items that are in stock in the US, either at Bulletproof’s warehouse or at a supplier’s warehouse, are generally delivered within 7-10 days. Special order items from overseas take considerably longer. As a courtesy Bulletproof offers delivery estimates to our customers which take into consideration manufacturer availability and shipping schedule. These estimates represent our best guess based on previous orders from the manufacturer and do not in any way imply a guaranteed delivery window. Many manufacturers work in a “just in time” inventory system and often take 2-20+ weeks to produce an item once an order is submitted. All deliverable items are then sent to our Japanese warehouse. Bulletproof ships a minimum of one full ocean freight container every month from Japan, oftentimes more than one a month. Ocean freight takes an average of 4 weeks. Typically it breaks down to one week in Japan for paperwork and customs, two weeks by boat and one week in US customs/clearance. Due to the wide number of variables between manufacturer and shipping schedules, delivery estimates are simply just that – estimates. We attempt to estimate conservatively and we usually deliver faster than our estimates suggest. It is not Bulletproof’s policy to guarantee delivery time of any special order item, this is impossible for us to do. By ordering you acknowledge that there is no required delivery ETA and an order may not be canceled or altered due to manufacturing or shipping delays, all ETA’s are provided as a best guess only. Please review the full Terms & Conditions here.

BP Pricing Difference

We do pricing a little differently on our JDM brands and we believe in making things simple and clear. No hidden fees or surcharges. Every price you see includes the shipping cost to our office in Los Angeles, California and all the associated taxes/duties/fees for bringing the products into the US. The only shipping you ever pay is from our facility in the US to your location. Be wary of resellers that don’t include the cost of international shipping in their pricing on JDM parts. While we believe we’ll always have the lowest all-in price on JDM products, we offer a price match guarantee for all authentic parts purchased from authorized dealers as well. For many international customers, it’s much more affordable to ship from the USA than from Japan directly, as the air freight and ocean freight costs are typically much less. However, for customers looking to ship directly from Japan outside of North America, or domestically in Japan, we can provide pricing specifically for that scenario. Please do not hesitate to contact us with any pricing questions or concerns. Please email us at sales@bulletproofautomotive.com with any inquiries.
