Anyone Running Rotora Brake Kits?
I mean $2,795 is a lot but my question is: Should I just replace my rotors and pads or get a big brake kit?
I drive a lot and have had my pads replaced and rotors turned last year but now its time to replace my brakes. Do you guys think its worth it?
www.rotora.com or pdf http://www.rotora.com/press%20release/rx8.pdf
Thanks for the imput,

DUDE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You have an auto, you don't track it, you have debt............
Be realistic just replace the rotors.
You don't need a BBK on your car, you don't even use the full potential you have now.
However do want you want, but don't default on your Visa payments..........
Ah.. might as well add another 1200 to the price by the time you pay it off.

I agree to Razz its a waist of money to buy big break kits if you dont track. I recommend powerslot if you want aftermarket rotors.

You won't notice any huge difference on the street in stopping power, but they sure are purty! Well that plus they let you shed a good bit of weight. But why stop there, why not go for even more weight reduction...

Actually I would recommend the Racingbrake slotted rotors (they are not slotted all the way through). Combine them with Hawk HPS or similar pad. That combo is guaranteed not to warp the rotors, you'll have less dust, and the rotors actually manage to stay silver and not turn to rust instantly.
