What do you guys recommend?
I saw the R1 Diamond Cut Design on ebay.. are those any good or junk?
I've heard cross-drill are no good for the street cause they warp and crack in a short time, What should I get?

Thanks,

 

just get some wagner, raybestos, or bendix rotors with some delco pads.

 

Slotted for quick stopping and some hawk pads.

 

i got the ssbc sloted kit and installed them today, really nice, includes pads too

 

where did you get them and how much?

 

Stockers are Brembo blanks and pretty damn good IMO.

 

you can get them from tbyrne or speed engineering i got mine for $335

 

I have drill/slot brembos and Hawk pads on all 4 corners and its stops WAY better than stock... all I have left to do now is get some SS brake lines.

 

If you're truly stopping better it's the pads doing all the improving and not the rotors; all slots and holes do in a rotor of equal diameter is lessen the braking surface area, which doesn't help.

 

i disagree to a point, it's not that rotors dont play a factor. we sell 2 different lines of brakes at napa, TRUE STOP import ceap chinese stuff and UP application engineered made in the states rotors

Truestop uses generic metal and just makes a rotor to get you by

UP makes application engineeted rotors that equal or exceed factory specs in material used, manufactureing process, and cooling fin design/pattern (random slots dont cool your calipers off as well as a stock design)

granted yes pads and pressure make up most of your braking performance, but w/o a good rotor you will not acheive your potential



(mods i'm not selling anything just using napa as an example)


*** edit*** i forgot to mention slots and holes are made for cooling when using heavy friction metallic pads "race use"
