STOPTECH rotors on ebay
i just came across an auction on ebay for a set of stoptech sportstop rotors...the price seems reasonable to me, but i was wondering if anyone on here has personal experience with these rotors in particular. excessive squeaking when braking? better performance? etc...
any advice/opinions would be appreciated.
oh and here's the link incase anyone wants to get them as well!

I've never used stoptechs myself, but I've heard they are in improvement over non-brembo OEM brakes. I'm not sure if you'll notice anything with just rotors though. If you go new fluid, SS-lines, rotors and pads...that's something else. But I would be weary on buying anything from ebay unless a vendor or member from here posted it.
My 0.2. If anything, message the vendor and ask for a guarantee on authenticity.

yeah, i was thinking the same thing...the guy from ebay actually has a shop in my city so i was just gonna go pick it up myself...i'll be expecting to see some legit boxes with STOPTECH written all over them...anyone else have personal experience with these rotors?
if you want to stop faster-- get stickier tires.
if you want to stop a little bit faster-- get better pads and stickier tires
if you want to stop multiple times during a short timeframe-- buy better pads and slotted rotors, and stickier tires.
if you want to stop mutiple times in a short period of time and have consistent braking distances-- buy a BBK or get brake ducting, higher temp tolerate brake fluid, good race pads, and stickier tires
The pads help the brakes feel better and increase heat capacity, reduced reaction time. Same with SS brake lines. Slotted rotors will give more bite.. and the
larger rotors give more heat capacity

hahaha i would love a BBK...who wouldnt...but i guess right now i'm just looking for something that's more "show" but is still reliable and won't give me trouble later on. i guess that's why i chose stoptech because i know they are a good company...
