Okay New Question
This is what i was also trying to get out of the last thread but oh well....what should i get for rotors? or what would you recommend? i am going into this project totally blind and want to know what you guys suggest
|
i would probably say to go with some slotted rotors (many brands) and if u go with a really high quality then maybe some cross drilled/ slotted but someitmes the drilling will make them crack on some cheap brand, i got the cross drilled/ slotted pretty cheap of ebay and got lucky so far ive had them about a year
|
I agree, the Drilled/Slotted Rotors are much better than the stock replacements. You can actually pick them up pretty cheap these days too. Did you see the ones I posted in the "What all did you get" thread??? I'll have to check the place I got mine and see if they have your application.
|
let me know arch..i think this is the next upgrade i am going to do since i decided not to sell it
|
Just know, rotors are not really going to change your stopping power. You'll see little to no change with drilled / slotted rotors. These days they are more cosmedic than anything else.
Now, if you went with a whole brake system upgrade, per say a Wilwood system, you'd nearly double your stopping power if thats what your looking for. |
i am not really looking for stopping power but i believe mine are the stock ones from 94 and 121000 i think it is time i get them replaced
|
So what do you people recommend? i am getting no response here. everyone has disappeared
|
Best on the market imo is Wilwood, but they are damn expensive.
|
look for some cheap ones on summit. I got both fronts which are cross drilled for $60.. and the pads for 40. They work excellent.
|
I got mine off Ebay from a place called R1Concepts, they're cross drilled/slotted and have worked great so far, they're cheap too, so I really don't care if one breaks cause it's not like I spent $300 on a rotor. I'm also using ceramic pads all around and it kicks *** now, way better than it was for stopping power and they look good too.
|
Yeah r1 concepts is great! Someone just bought from them not too long ago... cant remmeber who.

^ agreed. ceramic pads rule. My front rims arent black 3 days after cleaning anymore! :D
|
This would be a good time to upgrade to the very affordable 2 piston LS1 set up
