I know this, but the 330 i posted were for 4 rotors and front and rear pads. Not just rotors.

I replaced my Brembo pads with StopTech Street pads (less than $100 shipped on eBay) and didn't notice any difference in stopping power. Less dust as well.

OP, what happened with that guy calling you out on the intake you sold him?
He got the intake, later than we both would have liked due to an extremely busy schedule on my end. We bro hugged it out and all is well. He just sent me some installed pics of it a day or 2 ago. Looks good.

Good to know, I didn't think there was any foul play from a seasoned member. Keep us updated on your brake choice!

Should be ordering this or next pay check. Going with the Stoptech pads and Centric rotors, since it's the same damn company as stoptech and the same part for cheaper. I don't want to totally cheap out on this with the ebay no name crap, but I don't want to spend a fortune either. I think this is a good middle of the road setup.

F no I haven't. Was going to go for a week with this chick when she was on spring break, but my lame *** went to work instead.

I actually use stoptech pads on the street + autocross. I like 'em. As far as rotors....A LOT of track guys use generic centric blanks. My guess is that they will suit your needs more than adequately.

That's the same exact setup I use, love it. The OEM Nissan pads squeaked like crazy.

3hree - Go search partsgeek. They have some Centric rotors (w/o black hats) for the Brembos for like 38 a peice for the fronts. Im going to go the middle of the road (black hat) ones. They are something like 60 per for front and 54 rear. I think I priced out 239 shipped for the middle of the road Centric rotors and 330 shipped for the 4 rotors and Stoptech pads. Centric has some cheap pads on there too, and being that stoptech and Centric is the same company you can do the whole thing pretty cheap with all Centric parts.

All in all 330 isn't too bad for middle of the road rotors and pads and will suite me just fine with the occasional peppy driving and AutoX. Zdays is coming up when I get all this in I'l do a write up and 1st impression and then a 2nd impression after Zdays.. Tell ya all how they held up...

They have every option on there. I believe the Slotted were like $19 more per rotor.

They are out of stock of a lot on there so you just have to scroll down and read the discription and find what you want or call them.

Although I got them at separate times and vendors, I paid ~200 for rotors all around. I bought from autopartswarehouse.com and the basic Centric rotors were like $50 each and they have free shipping for orders over $50.

Can't complain. Ordered Wednesday night, shipped Friday, received Tuesday.

Yeah, they have slotted rotors.

Any of you can find what you are looking for here. It'll give you the part numbers to make it easier to find out what you're looking for. Some of those websites that sell don't give the best descriptions.

No problem guys

I won't make it to ZdayZ this year because I have a lot going on that I need to prepare for. I really wanna go because I missed last years but gotta take care of priorities.

I will definitely be there next year though. Plan on booking the cabin when Bryan tells me the damn date for ZdayZ 2012
