The Brembo rotors won't be available for another 2 months.
The price will be about $300 a pair.

I think I'll be ordering the powerslots tonight.
Anyone recommend a place to get the best deal?

Man, there must be something made cheaper in the Brakes..

Mine have 158,9xx miles on them... stock in the front... rotors,pads and parking brake shoes in the rear... and ive done several 100+mph stops.. and towed way more than i should have 12klbs at times...

After alot of heavy use they do pulsate a little... but goes away after awhile..

I just wish i had that kindof luck with Torque Converters.........

I think the 2005 redesign with the larger rotors screwed something up. The 99-04's do not seem to be having the same issues.

From what I hear around here, the material used to make the 05-06 13" rotors is crap.
They stop great, but pulsate like a ****.
