Power Stop rotors/pads?
Has anyone had experience with this product? My front rotors are warped on my Z so I am looking for new rotors. The cheapest I've found so far is $225 for the EBC Ultimax slotted rotors. After some more research, I stumbled upon the Power Stop brake kit. The kit includes drilled and slotted rotors and carbon ceramic pads for all 4 corners all for $350 (shipped). This seems a little too good to be true. This kit also says they are backed by a 3yr/36000 mile warranty. That's longer than my OEM rotors lasted (19000 miles). Anyway, just wondering if anyone has experience with this brand and if its worth it or if just a cheap scam. If I don't get this kit, I will just get front rotors (most likely EBC) because my pads are fine and don't have extra money to do a complete brake job. So, like I said, any input is appreciated, thanks.

No experience with the stuff you listed. But I just picked up some eline blanks from R1 Concepts with stoptech street performance pads. Total came out to about $280 shipped. So far i'm pretty happy with the quality. I've been using them for about 3 weeks now. The bite seems a little bit above OEM to compare.

Never heard of the stuff you're describing, OP, but as ABO mentioned, check out R1concepts.com. The E-lines cross drilled and slotted are what I picked up. Been running them about a year and a half now... The Premiums are made with the same rotor blanks that Stoptech uses btw...

Wow, those are some decent prices. Glad to hear some positive feedback as well. I could pick up a set for under $250. I would run them with my OEM pads for now as they have a decent amount of meat left. I can't believe my OEM rotors are warped before 20k miles.

I just got my power stop cross drilled and slotted rotors and ceramic pads via fed-ex today. I'm going to install them this weekend. I'll have a review in a few weeks.
