what do i need

[h22sparkle]

Hey im lookin for some new performance slotted rotors and performance brakes which ones should I get? . Because my stock ones are begining to crack help a brutha out . Any good opinions?

[d21x]

get regular rotors, cross drilled or slotted dont serve any good purpose on a regular car. autozone rotors are perfectly fine. if u want to spend $$$ then go to nopionline.com and get some brembo blanks

[arrozburner]

why dont you do the rotor-over-hub swap?

[h22sparkle]

My car is far from regular bro. how much does the rotor over hub swap cost compared to the brembo blanks.

Slotted rotors actually do serve a purpose on any car...

I love mine...


Powerslot slotted rotors...

Brembo Blanks would be your best bet. Slotted/drilled are only good if you do hard braking on the track etc

Henry I think still has some for sale. Hes got the brembo drilled with pads..

I do hard braking on the street and trust me...they help...

I really wish sometimes that everyone would stop regurgutating the things they've heard about a product and subject the rest of to the uninformed opinions of said products...

Okay now what about this. I dont understand how some people explain about them crackin thats what im concerned about . Now at what power do they start to crack at?

it's not so much a what power they crack at type of thing... it's how you use them...

Use them hard and they will warp and eventually crack... like OE rotors are the worst for any kind of spirited driving...

Cross drilled rotors tend to crack alot because people use them hard... and alot of places just don't know how to cross drill and it weakens the rotors... I don't know how it is now... but Brembo didn't use to sell any cross drilled rotors whatsoever... if they were x drilled they were done by someone else...

now slotted are good because you get some minor increased surface area for heat disappation but the real beauty of slotted is that the slots shave the pad down a tiny bit at a time so you are always using a new pad surface...

You do go thru pads ever so slightly more with slotted... I replace mine about once a year... but I do drive hard..and brake hard...

I used to warp OE rotors every few months before I got the powerslots... and I haven't had the powerslots warp at all in the 3-4 years I've had them on... they are still as perfectly in spec as the day they went on... which I find amazing personally and why I highly reccomend them...

[h22sparkle]

and how much were they and where did you get em from?

[ZigenBallZ]

and how much were they and where did you get em from?

I got a deal on them... $50 each from a guy I knew that worked at Les Schwab...

I wouldn't reccomend going thru them though... I hate that place...fuckers cracked my lugnuts once and wouldnt do a damn thing about it...


I think they are about 65-75 ea retail...

I agree that slotted are the best way to go. We have ROTORA slotted rotors with Axxiss Semi Metallic Pads on our CB7. The high speed stopping power is amazing...

i have brembo slotted and cross drilled and i love them...ive never had a problem with them at all. they stop great and havent warped on me. as for cost, they prelude rotors cost me about 100, calipers 65 and hubs like 50-60 i think...not bad for bigger brakes (1in bigger over stock). oh and i also changed to the prelude master cylinder, that cost 75

that's the total cost of a rotor over hub conversion? How much does it cost to do all around?
