There is one primary issue of compatibility when it comes to using fifth-gen parts on sixth-gen vehicles: the centrebore.

For some reason, the fifth-gen used a 54 mm centrebore but the sixth-gen used a 55 mm centrebore. This means that you either have to shave the fifth-gen rotors -- and risk a hub-centric design getting an out-of-round centrebore -- or swap the hubs on your sixth-gen to fifth-gen hubs. Mounting fifth-gen rotors on sixth-gen hubs almost works, but not quite.

I got to read, IIRC, Coomer's thread about cracking rotors when he attempted it with the Yelli Celli.
