TUTU AUTO

I’m looking at buying some R32 front rotors from this place.

Does anyone have personal experience with their products or anything to say about their quality.

I’ve searched for it but didn’t come up with much. Any input would be appreciated. Thanks!

no experience with them, but i would beware of buying cross-drilled brake rotors from anyone other than authorised distributors of the product, brembo in this case.

i have witnessed first hand some of the shadiness that goes on with x-drilled rotors.

i’ve literally seen 40+ year old asian women with a paper template and a mastercraft drill press x-drilling $25 brake rotors then rattle-can rust painting the hub with another paper template… only to see these things end up on ebay for an inflated price.

this was in Toronto, up off of Kennedy a few years back… i only buy rotors from reputable places since then.

Isn’t a tutu something you wear when you’re doing ballet? Why would you buy car parts from a ballet shop? :stuck_out_tongue:

Feed back is what I’m looking for, I don’t even mind the sarcasm. Thanks for the input.

I’ll be sure to inquire about the manufacturing process and their quality control.

has anyone purchased from them?

they dont need quality control unless they are making the rotors, which they shouldnt be if they are real brembos.

does brembo sell yellow rotors? i dont think soooooooo

Based on this sentence alone I wouldn’t go near them:

“If you are a car enthusiast who is interested in upgrading your brake system for the racing events and make it more sports style and powerful, we also have Super Enhance cross drilled rotors that with special design!”

Try KVR in Ottawa, you’ll be happy.

Lol, all I mean is that I should probably ask if an old asian woman is operating their drill press. Also, I looked up there phone number, not anywhere near Kennedy…

where would you recommend finding quality drilled rotors in the GTA area?

I’m not a track star, 90% poser. I just want them to look pretty.

Thats helpful, thanks!

you dont need cross-drilled…

just buy brembo blanks or KVR as dave said.

stay away from these TUTU guys…

i’ll throw down the TSN guarantee that they are using shit.

you can buy china-rotors for $10 for a 240sx… these guys are buying those and drilling / painting them. The $10 rotors dont even last a year of hard driving, they will warp quickly… imaging reducing the surface area by drilling through them? fuck that shit.

i can’t beleive how many people fall for this shit.

i suppose one way to check is that true x-drilled, or at least on the brembos, have a chamferred edge on the hole. A drill press wont do that.

a drill press will put a chamfer on the hole, after you drill the hole you put in a counter sink to chanfer the holes. (i work in a machine shop)

bing was the place you are referring to by kennedy called etopline by chance

ok ok, but this china-chick wasnt doing that. i stand corrected.

yeah i think so.

why?

yeah it was them:

THIS IS NOT A BREMBO ROTOR… SORRY

ya well thats just insane not to chanfer the edge cause it is going to rip apart you pads couse that edge is sharp as fuck after you drill it. and to counter sink a hole is literly like 10sec a hole so if they dont want to do that… then my god wow

OK, I’m glad we had this discussion. Thanks for all the input. Like I said before, I don’t do hard driving, just daily driving. But having said that, regardless of driving intensity, the quality will be evident in the long run. I was actually wondering about chamfered edges…but that is not likely a feature offered on TUTU brakes.

I was just checkin the KVR site out… prices seem reasonable. Thanks again for the help.

Anyone know how to tell a real brembo rotor from a fake then? I got my rotors on ebay. Same deal it was a dude with a machine shop who buys brembo blanks and drills and slots them. I bought from him because he confirmed with me they are real brembos and he has a cnc program do the work. So i just bought the 30mm slotted and zink plated and drilled to 4 bolt. But my rotors came in a brembo box and have a brembo logo stamped in the side edge of the rotor. I would recommend not buying drilled rotors other then from brembo or they will crack on you.

buy from reputable places…

i have brembo blanks on the front of my car, cant remember where i got them from though. i’ve had them for 2 years with not a single issue and i brake pretty hard pretty often.

you should realy stay away from drilled rotters if it is a daily driver, even with the chaffer on the edge it still rips your pads appart faster, slotted wont do it as bad as drilled
