Centric 320.42035F Disc Brake Rotor - Front

Centric GCX Front Brake Rotor Overview

The Centric GCX Elemental Protection Disc Brake Rotor, part number 320.42035F, is a front vented rotor built for OE-style braking performance and corrosion resistance. It is a fitment-based replacement for select Nissan Sentra, Nissan NX, and Nissan Pulsar NX applications.

Centric’s GCX Full Coating line uses an RS200 finish on non-mating surfaces to help protect the rotor from rust while maintaining a clean appearance over time. The rotor’s application-specific metallurgy is matched to OEM-style material profiles for consistent braking behavior.

Product Line Details

Centric GCX Elemental Protection Disc Brake Rotors are engineered as coated replacement rotors for drivers who want OE-matched fit and corrosion protection on exposed surfaces. The full coating helps preserve the rotor’s appearance, while the application-specific coating pattern and metallurgy are selected to align with the brake pad friction type and vehicle requirements.

Vehicle Fitment

• Fits 1987-1994 Nissan Sentra, front.
• Fits 1991-1993 Nissan NX, front.
• Fits 1987 Nissan Pulsar NX, front.
• Fits 1986 Nissan Sentra, front.

What This Rotor Helps Address

• Front brake rotor wear that requires replacement
• Rust and corrosion on exposed rotor surfaces
• Brake pulsation caused by worn or uneven rotors
• Reduced braking consistency from aged OE rotors
• Appearance concerns from uncoated rotor surfaces

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify rotor dimensions, hub fitment, and 4-lug 100 mm bolt pattern before installation. This rotor is for front applications only and uses a vented, floating-mount design. For best results, inspect pads, calipers, and hub surfaces during service and follow the vehicle manufacturer’s brake service procedures.

Quality Assurance

Centric designs the GCX rotor line to match OE performance targets and uses coated non-mating surfaces for added corrosion protection. The metallurgy is formulated to align with OEM-style material profiles for the listed Nissan Sentra, Nissan NX, and Nissan Pulsar NX fitments. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.
