What rotors for OEM non-brembo.
I need to replace my OEM rotors soon, they have been cut too many times and now they warp wayyyy too fast. I don't want to get a BBK, so I will just replace them with a good set of slotted rotors. I don't want drilled because I heard they can crack under high heat. I will also be replacing the pads, linesm and fluids at the same time I do the rotors.
Also I have the 2005 OEM calipers, NON-Brembo.
What rotor do you think I should get, I want to get a good quality rotor that can handle the heat.

I'm not sold that slotted are really worth the price unless you're tracking it heavily. I got some Centric stock replacement rotors for track use from Zeckhausen for dirt cheap and they worked just fine.

if you are doing lines, rotors, pads, the absolute best bang for the buck is the Stoptech Stage 2

however, you need to double check what pads your car has, as there is a split between G35's in 05 as I recall

drilled rotors FTL!
not only can they crack under heat, but they do not disperse heat as good as slotted or even blanks..
i just ordered the STOPTECH STAGE 2 kit form importimages.. FTW! best 580 spent...
id suggest that...
SS lines are the #1 brake upgrade u can honestly do.

The stoptech stage II upgrade is great for the street.
If you do any competative driving then I would piece together a system so you can choose your own pads. IMO the axxis pads that came with the ST stage II kit I used to use were completely inadequate for any sort of performance use.
