I emailed him this morning, he contacted me right back and i got a great deal! all four - slotted / cd with black hats, with a set of hawk hps pads, and braided brake lines shipped to ky for $380.
+1 for rotor pros and for telling me about him. |
do i need to specify that i need the ones for the sport suspension right? because there are 2 types of brake setups on the 8 i think?

Just so you guys know, these rotors won't help you stop faster. I've done a lot of research on the net, and basically since you are removing material from a heat sink, it won't be able to absorb as much heat. It's pretty negligible, but still....
But they sure as hell look sexy. I have slotted on my ZX2... LoL |

And if you did research you would know that: "Slotted brake rotors u*se slots carved into the flat metal surface to move gas, heat and water away from the surface of the rotors. You can think of the slots as irrigation ditches that move the unwanted materials safely out of the way." |

most people who track prefer blank rotors over slotted or dimpled, cross drilled is a definite nono,
modern pads dont really emit that much gas so effects of slots or holes on your braking performance is minimal at best, the only thing they do besides looking good is shortening pad life and randomly cracking on track days cooling is mostly dependent on vane layout, honestly if your looking for performance, get OEM, or OEM like rotors, unless you upgrade to a lighter 2peice setup |
Or carbon ceramic... Haha
|
just emailed him today, definitely taking advantage of this deal. soo cheap
|
i got all rotors with hats, hawk hps pads,braided brake lines all shipped to me for 350! sooo cheap can't wait to get them!

Looks good, love the wheels man.
|
thanks man yeah i love them too haha

For those of you who have had these for a while, how are they holding up? My originals (which are as old as my car in the rear I think,) are extremely rusty at the hubs and edges. Do these rust much?
Do the stainless lines seem to be good quality? TIA. |
Mine are holding up great after 1.5 years. No complaints at all.
|
^Same here
No problems at all in the last 1-1/2yrs. That includes winter driving as well |
Slotted & Dimpled - Front and Rear
Hawk Ceramics Pads - Front and Rear SS Brake Line - Front and Rear Shipped to Canada $540... not bad at all. |

I just changed all four corners to slotted with red hats.. I also changed pads from hawk hps to racing brake et500. Holy crap these things work. The first hundred miles it took to wear off the coating were average. But after bedding and bluing, it takes a. Day or two to adjust your foot to press lighter

is it true that slotted or drilled or both rotors get rid of squeal altogether?
idk where I heard that.... |
