    Will Mach 1 Rotors direct bolt to a GT?

    My cousins got a pair of mach 1 rotors he took off when he got his Baer rotors. Will the Mach 1 rotors direct bolt to my GT with the stock setup? Quick edit: They have about 40k miles on the rotors, best to just buy new ones, or is there still life in them?

    I hate all 03/04 Cobra owners. Every last one of them.
