I have a 97 S1 that I bought a few months ago. Took it to get tires and they tell me the front rotor is warped. I never noticed it before they did what they did. Mine has the PM caliper and EBC rotor. Are all front rotors the same from 95 S2's to 02 S3 or M2? I know they went to Nissan calipers, but are the rotors the same? Thanks, Jimmy

Are you sure its warped? It wouldn't surprise me if someone was trying to make a buck off of you like that.

With the front end off the ground on a stand. You can spin the front wheel and it is definitely warped. It spins freely for half the rotation, then sticks for the other half.

It is a EBC ProLite. If that makes any difference.

To answer your question you can use all tuber rotors...

Thanks, I was hoping that was true. You see them listed separately sometimes.

If you wanted orginal there were several different designs..
1. The early S2 the rotor bolted to the side of the carrier with 9 pins.
2. 6 Hollow pins with removable clips holding the carrier in line with the rotor.
3. Countersunk screws in 6 pins with nuts holding the rotor in line with the carrier. With this type there were 2 different size pins.
4. 9 Hollow non-removable pins holding the carrier in line with the rotor.
