hey I think your video is great and matches my search. I search for how to drill rotors. I got this. everyone else mad bc your method is not a method they can do. well to bad . that's how you do it and it's pretty f n good . great work
i am sure some of the 36 holes you drilled cutted the slits too, and you had to do bevel on the holes with bigger drill bit to help coolling better but also be less agressive with the pads. great idea, though, and nice work for the video!
Non of the slits been cut, i made the template and put it on the rotor and checking all slits before drilling, and i the reason i didnt bevel on the holes, because it reduce surface area on the rotor with contacting with pad
Yea dude a slight Bevel will act as a Bernoulli nozzle with the air flow to aid cooling :) super cars use this and use software to find the best bevel to surface area ratio
I do have 1 suggestion. it's an amateur one but here goes. you should not have each hole all in the same rotational line. they must be offset from one another to prevent robbed patterns from wearing from a no contact area
What drill bit is used to drill through the rotors? Doesn't have to be fancy because I'm not using the rotors for my car but using it for a side projects that is non car related.
Well done !. wish I had the template for a 1988-1990 Chevrolet K1500 ""light duty'' rotor. i beat my truck with crazy loads, l (400 trans) last time over the scales I had 2300lbs total load.. I love my old chvy. just these surtan years have shight for brakes! and I would gladly pay $10 for a template... nice video 1988-1990 Chevrolet K1500 #yh141454 - 141454 brake rotor not fit no.. cool thanks man. Jay the pool pump repair guy guy.
first with your style of drilled rotor it will wear the pad unevenly, 2nd you didnt chamfer the rotor so that will lead to it being more prone to cracking, and 3rd why did you drill the rotor. drilled rotors are not effective at controlling heat on larger automotive vehicles and have the con of being less effective from the reduced surface area and unlike slotted rotors done clean the pad near as effectively. just dont get the logic behind drilled rotors from a pure engineering standpoint. if you have trouble cooling the brakes of your car then either buy bigger brakes with more mass or brakes that are more efficient at cooling ie a better cooling fin design or you can buy a brake duct kit. you should really be having problems with oe brakes unless your doing heavy braking over a long period of time.
The clearing of pads is a very well trodden misconception. The thinking behind venting a disk in this fashion is to allow the gas that builds up on the connect area between pad and disk to escape and help to prevent brake fade.
@@World-Superbike these gasses are not near as prevalent as they were before and considering practically every race car with steel brakes uses a j hook design which is just a less intrusive slot I would say cleaning of the pads is important when heating the pads to a high degree such as a motorsports application. The slots also help in things like wet weather where there will be gases or in Off-Road applications where mud and other debris can get in between the pad and rotor
Only if you drill quite big holes and cut the vanes. The rule is not too big and not too much. The holes diameter should be less than the thickness of the rotor wall.
This is going to save me money thanks

I think slight bevel less than a mm would do no harm.

Thats a great suggestion, next time i will
Why aren't big companies doing that?
@@thedude3189 they might be, hard to tell unless you're looking at the rotor in person
Now after all those years, did you face any issue with those rotors? I heard they might explode if a small error in measurements is made.
If i send you the measurements, how much do you charge to do the template?
Nice bro I have vmc machine I am planning to do it.and can you tell for slotted brake rotors
What drill bit is used to drill through the rotors? Doesn't have to be fancy because I'm not using the rotors for my car but using it for a side projects that is non car related.
$20 rotor online, $100,000.oo CNC laser, hmmmmm ??
Lmao off.....omg, that's soo funny
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
well some people work in the industry and can easily access those CNC..But they still drive cheap car
set of 2 rotors driled for my car cost ~800€
basic oem set cost ~200€
Nice , except the directional pattern are the same . Should have reversed a pattern so you have right and left directional flow
They are different pattern, for left and right, 😎
How much do you charge to do this in my 405 mm Bentley rotors plus resurfacing?
GREAT video! Nice Job!
Thanks 🙏
What drill press are you using? I can’t tell if it’s an actual drill inside of a press conversion or if you are using a standalone press
its a drill add on, I have one its pretty great You clamp in any drill that You have
So late for this, now i usually get my drilled and slotted rotors from amazon 50 bucks each pair last about 2 years
Its successful ?
How much for a set of these my classic car they really don't have drilled for mine
Could you do a template for BMW E46 330Ci rear discs?
Can you do a template for my 2000 Civic rotors?
How did u measure the holes to make them not go through the slits themself?
I designed with AutoCad first
If i give You measurements how much to make a template?
It will be free, send it to my facebook, its in the description box
Hi Ali i send you message on Messenger☺️
Do you send template stickers for 330mm brembo front rotor?
Well done !. wish I had the template for a 1988-1990 Chevrolet K1500 ""light duty'' rotor.

My personal Facebook account in the description, text me I will make the template for free
Measure ID and OD and count the number of vanes (if any).
How much for templates bro?
The price of a piece of paper and a pen?
Is this safe?
Yes its if you done it properly and not drilling the slits, it's been two years I did mine and I didn't have any cracking or warping problems till now
Yep it is I done this on my Honda Civic years ago
Good job
How i can get the template..what size of this rotor?
I made it, I really dont remember, it's been a long time since I had this car
Wouldn’t be cheaper just to buy them they drill rotors are not expensive
How’s it cheaper to buy something instead of modifying what you already have?
Would you be able to get me a template if I gave you measurements? I'll pay you.
let's see; $145k CNC pattern, $5 drill press, $30 rotor, 2 hours for 2 rotors, hmmmmWharton Graduate~

Slotted rotors are better than drilled. Jus sayin!
+Robert Touchstone the drilled rotor have better cooling than slotted rotor, it helps to cool the rotor and the pads
Will it make it weaker i mean will disc prone to crack easily

True , for trace use. Drill rotors not good for everyday use.
@@ibro99 and the holes need to be deburred

It will be free,
I will send you info next week once I get the rotors, thank you
AliMECH can you send me the template so then i can send for print out ?
