so i am looking at project mu scr rotors. the rear are no issue, but there are no 626/msp specific, but the fc3s rotors are the same diameter. Only thing is they are 2mm thinner than stock (22 vs 24 mm) will this cause an issue? cuz zomg sexiest rotors ever

Well, with the 2mm reduction in thickness, you are loosing some of your heat storing capacity. So it will basically be like you are starting out with a worn 626 rotor- except the Project Mu rotor will be new.

Donate your 626 upgrade to me, then you have a great reason to buy the MU. :evil:

MU is a play on words for "nerd speak" for the coefficient of friction.
