if your going to change your rotor, go with some nice aftermarket they are cheaper then the OEM rotor, plus you get more for your money.

i say go Brembo brand. All in all great quality rotor w/ plenty or R&D time invested. On another note, i believe brembo actually manufactures about 80%of rotors whether they are another brand or Brembo brand; they all come from the same factory.

I got Brembo last time...I wouldn't recommend it.

Man and I was just about to order some. Whats the matter with them? Not worth the price and any recommendations?

They wear down quickly for some reason - maybe it was just mine?
My old Powerstop rotors lasted for about 6 years.

if you guys are just going with non-drilled rotors, just go with aftermarket Raybestos, I'm sure they have to meet standards and have to be at least as good in terms of quality and safety as OEM.

I wanted to go with some drill or slotted rotors pretty much to get some better stopping power and for a little of a cleaner look since I'm eventually going to get new rims and I want to be able to see a nice little rotor upgrade. Vin are yours drilled or slotted?

im rollin with brembo crossdrilled and slotted right now. They have been perfect thus far but then again they havent worn down very much as ive only but about 10,000 miles on them. Some people complain about them cracking but ive not experienced it thus far and i corner and brake hard. However, i would recommend crossdrilled for sure! they reduce much brake fade and increase stopping power.

Ive also heard many good things about iRotor rotors. i believe the website is irotor.com or i-rotor.com

I really like the the look of drilled rotors but Id hate to have noise or pulsation. Is that a problem? I absolutely refuse to own a car with squealing or pulsating brakes. My original front rotors on my 92 are on there 3rd and final cut and are .04" under spec. (No pulsation) So im really set on OEM rotors next brake job. Can drilled/slotted rotors even be turned?

i think bendix is good brand for brakes and so must be for rotors
$65 at advance auto parts for 1 front rotor.
but wait you can go to tirerack and order 2 front brembos ~$90 shipped.
