Gothamracing.com had some good deals. I got mine through Silver Nintey Three (Ihor) of this forum. Good prices... mmmmm...
I may have to look into them.. how much did you get yours for?

The big brake kits are for the front only because the front does around 70% of the stopping. The rear ones are usually enough to stop the car.

i would recommend getting the brembo blanks and running hawks HPS/HP+. i think you would visit the track at most once a week....

the cross-drilled would fully function if you have brake ducts, which you dont have (base, right?).

slotted would be good too, but you have your car as a daily driver... pads where fast.



the factor ones have veins and thus better for cooling and such, but they really warp easily, unless you let them cool evenly after hard brakings (and no hand brakes after parking the car)



hope my opinions help, just my .02

Biot ones are awesome. 2 piece slotted ones. Biot is a new Braking and suspension company in Japan. Border Racing does a lot of Test and R&D for them. Or you can go all out and get their Brembo kit. If you have any questions about their products, pm me.

Check out Irotors.com, you can get drilled and slotted all 4 $220. they are either brembos or direct knock offs. Anyway good stoping and at that price it is cheep to learn on, if you eat them w/ agressive race pads.

I've seen to many drilled rotors crack, go slotted and some Project Mu pads, that should make you stop dead in your tracks.
