Default Who has Drilled or Slotted Rotors.....

and what kind? I've found a couple on eBay and that's about it. I really don't want to spend a grand or two on a compelete kit, just the rotors.

Thanks. :D

I have a set of slotted ones from www.racingbrake.com that I won at Scion Exposed. I'm just lazy and haven't gotten them put on yet.

The racing brake ones are the best. Most ebay ones purchase Brembo blanks en mass and then drill or slot them. The racing brake ones are designed from the ground up. Check out their site for more technical info.

We sell ONLY these rotors at our forum to all of our Accord, maxima and g35/350z members. We'll soon be carrying them for the xA and xB by next week. The cheap brembo blanks tend to crack all the time. When it comes to rotors, you really get what you paid for.

Whether or not you go w/ raicing brake, here's a thought. These rotors will be your last line of defense against an accident. Wouldnt' you want the best money can buy?

As always, always purchase new pads along with new rotors so there's almost no chance of any squeaking or shimming, or wheel tugging

I have the #1 cross drilled and slotted brake rotors on my Xb. I paid about $120 shipped for the set.

How about a disc brake kit for the rear? Full disc would be nice.

Our discs are pretty beefy up front, maybe just getting them drilled would work, besides a really nice set of pads.

the only problem with that is, if they are not drilled properly they will crack. They also need to be drilled while keeping in mind it has to be balanced just like a tire has to be balanced.
To the guy who thinks the 4 wheel disk would be nice. My show car is a car that came from the factory with 4 wheel disk and i would much rather have drums. Less pita to work on, cost less, and have better stopping power than my disks. But like it was said if you want you can upgrade disks and not really drums. JMO
Later Jay (this is the womans SN) i wil get my own soon
