Good effort. Certainly fits well but some minor criticisms.

I've also spoken to brake specialist and an engineer who didn't like the idea turning a 5 stud disc into swiss cheese with 9 holes weakning the surface.


You can order blank undrilled discs from DBA if you are prepared to wait (particularly with low volume, low turnover items).

I am surprised your engineer allowed the rotor to be located using the hat (it's the weakest part of the rotor). When faced with a similar problem, an engineer I spoke to suggested machining the central spigot hole and making a locator collet. I suppose you have someone to sue should the hat break!
