Go into the blackmarket section and look under brake motive. They have a similar set for about 160 shipped, I've got 20000 miles on mine and they have held up great. No warping, rusting, etc.

+1 for Brake Motive

going on almost a year with mine and no issues so far, great price too. You can get them from their eBay store for $112 shipped w/o pads though

We offer a brake package for the 2G TL.

http://store.excelerateperformance.c.../i-398965.aspx

These Acurazine brake packages are designed to improve braking performance and durability at a reasonable price. The packages include Powerslot/STOPTECH performance rotors and STOPTECH Performance pads. All of the rotors have a black e-coating on the hubs and vanes and an advanced alloy composition. The Powerslot slotted rotors for the front of most Acuras also have a Power Alloy composition and a curved vane construction, which helps reduce heat in the brake system. The STOPTECH Performance pads are a para-aramid compound, which has great initial bite and long-term performance and lower dust and noise than most aftermarket brake pads.

I used the Rotora slotted rotors and had them cryo treated. I put 50K+ on them and they have held up. Cryo treating the rotors helped a lot.

Rotora drilled/slotted rotors are great. I had them for years but when I needed to replace them I couldn't afford $400

Yes, that's one part of the process. Bring them down to -300F then +300F and then room temperature. Some shops take the temperature further down. You can buy them already cryo treated, like the Power Slot ones, but I just bought my Rotora rotors and shipped them to the cryo shop and when they were done, they shipped them to me. My pads lasted a long time to before I had to replace them.
