Anyone have Drilled/Slotted ROTORS..PLEASE POST PICS

boys,
i love the look of the cross drilled or slotted rotors, and HATE the look of my rotors...
I dont plan on getting new rims because i love the look of the CL-S rims....but may get new tires .
I was hoping someone here had a pic of a CL with the slotted/drilled rotors......Please post pics....if not pics..and you have them, please let me know how you like or dislike them!
Thanks Fellas.

You can click on the link(s) in my sig.

EDIT: I notice the greatest improvement in heavy or repeated braking. The cross-drilling and slots help dissipate heat and stop the car quicker than my OEM rotors. Just make sure to match the rotors with a good brake pad (I'm using PBR Metal Master).

I'm with DeLuc on this one...

I was just looking at the Comptech website at their drilled rotors.

I think they cool as hell.

How do they perform?? Big difference in braking?

buying for looks, tsk tsk.

If you're looking for performance, you'll probably see a bigger difference if you just changed to better pads. Only if you are a true racer/autocrosser will you notice the benefits of the cross-drilled/slotted rotors. They provide better outgassing, so the pads don't 'float' over the disc like on solid rotors. They also cut into the pads so that a fresh, clean surface is available. But this will cut down on your pad-life quite significantly.

There's a longstanding debate that cross-drilled rotors can crack too. This is argued alot though...

That said, I bought PowerSlots for my MR2

Lat I checked at Comptech they did not have the rotors in stock and had no idea when they might get them in.

KVR does have them, though. I can give you the contact info. if necessary. These are probaly better quality anyways.

I would appreciate the info.. not sure if I want to do it or not yet, but I would like to be able to look into...

How were the prices??

thanks

Tim at APC has them for our car as well. They are stock size but cross drilled. Here is the link to the page. ===> CLICK HERE <=== They even come in different colors. I think moomaster has them front and rear. They look great!!!! Get them with some ebc green brake pads and it will not only look good, you will stop faster!!!
