Correct me if i'm wrong, couldn't you just use the GSF rotors on the ISF? Or do they have different dims?

However, we would need to order at least 100 pieces to make it happen. If you guys want these in just the blanks where we can machine these in slotted only, let me know and I'll put in a request in. I would need serious inquires for this too.
id def be interested in slotted!! I kno i pmd u about ordering but if slotted can happen id send the money today lol

Rears work, fronts are bigger.

Anyone use Brakenetic?

I might...
I have a set of Brakenetic GT slotted rotors F & R. I really like them!!! No track days with it but I have done multiple runs on mountain roads. No issues as of yet especially down hill. I used to run the old OEM drilled rotors but after some hard runs in the hills, the drilled holes began to clog causing vibration and eventually start to crack. Really wanted to do the 2 piece rotor but the price was a bit much. Also, when comparing OEM vs these rotors I've noticed the fronts have the center hub cut "deeper" to expose more of the vents for more cooling. Time will tell if these rotor hold up.

Mountain runs don't equal track duty. Nothing you can do on the street approaches what track use does to rotors.

Thanks for the review! Did you have the part number for the rotors?

Damn, $140 a piece?! That's not bad considering the website and link posted previously has them now at $321 for just the fronts. They've gone up in price since you last posted.

Was perusing rock auto, there's a centric kit (rotor/pads) for front and rear, thoughts on these for a daily driver as a replacement?
