Desperate need of Stopping Power!!

As the title state i am in desperate need of stopping power. My rotors are warped, pretty much self explanatory. Im set on the pads im going to get, Hawk Ceramic. Heard they dont dust as much. Now what i need help with his choosing a good set of rotors. Any recommendations, keep in mind i want slotted only. I was thinking Rotora or Racing Brake? Wats the difference and whats gonna make me happy when i need to slow down from 100 to to 55? lol jk. any other suggestions in the same price range? Thanks alot guys!

I used powerslot rotors on my last two integras and have no complaints. Should be around 100 for each front rotor and planning on getting some soon for my TSX.

I've heard lots of good things about the Racing Brake rotors. I've run powerslot frozen rotors on other cars and liked them a lot. The slots don't make much of difference though, it's more for looks on a street car. You actually get somewhat better performance out of a blank rotor since there's more contact area.

I just bought some Racking Brakes from Heeltoe and I definitely recommend these over Rotora.


On TL, these are 2 piece rotor.


The reason I went w/ Racking Brakes over Rotora because Rotora seems to rust on the slotted and drilled area, here is an example what I was talking about.

I wont recommend racing brake slotted rotors. Both my friend and I had bought the set for all four corners and hp ceramics. We both had them warped within 1 1/2 years.

The racing brake rotors also rusted in two months where the black coating was suppose to prevent that.

Im currently looking for seomthing else, but not sure what to get.
