Has anyone bought performance rotors? I have a 99 TL and would like to get a recommendation before I buy.

 

search is your homeboy

 

Search. I'd suggest Rotora. Also, check out the group buys through our vendors.

 

Sorry, I am new to this whole forum thing and this website. What are group buys?

 

If a vendor can get a group of people to buy an item, the unit price is less than a single sale.

 

And how do you go about doing that?

 

Look under staff for our vendors, or go the black market section of the forum. Excelerate has good deals and prices on Rotora rotors. Very fast and reliable.

Thanks.

 

I got Brembo blank rotors, not really performance oriented but they do the job, and cost a lot less than OEM replacement. You can also look for drilled or slotted rotors from vendors here or on Ebay.

 

I suggest Rotora, I have slotted and crossdrilled front and rear. I got them from excelerate. He is a vendor here on the site. Fast shipping. I recommend him.

 

Rotora slotted rotors is the way to go.

 

Bought Rotora slotted front rotors about 2.5 years ago from a group buy on this forum (forgot who organized it) and just intalled them two weeks ago. So far I love the look and the performance is much much better than stock.

I bought the Axxis brake pads together with the rotors and the brake pads squeked and "dust" like crazy. The braking is hella good however, but I can't stand the noise and the dirty look of my front wheels. I finally changed the pads to Akebono last weekend and in the process of breaking-in. Won't know if there are any brake dust for another week. But I read the review on Akebono in this form and they are pretty good.

Sorry for too much information.

 

Hawk pads are really good to. people also use EBC green stuff. I am using Rotora pads. They are good, but I think I am going to go back to the hawk pads after i need to change them.

 

Rotorwerks.com an Ebay store... Bought 4 drilled and slotted rotors with f + r performance pads. $238. Shipped from Cali to NYC... No complaints...

 

Yup. Slotted Rotora.
I have them for the font. Now my rear brakes are starting to thin out. I may have to spend the $$$ again.

 

StopTech makes slotted as well as drilled rotors for the 2nd gen TL also.

Im gonna be getting some e-bay brand rotors. Some had success with them. Gonna pair them up with Certified Pro Ceramics.

 

my mechanic buddy suggests "centric" http://www.centricparts.com/prod02.htm

nice and not too expensive.

 

Centric's slotted rotors = StopTech's slotted rotors. Centric manufactures them for StopTech since they are partners.

I Went Brembo Cross Drilled And Slotted With Ebc Green Stuff All Around Definetly A Bigg Difference N Less Dust

 

Hey PiZaul, which eBay seller's rotors have you had success with? Are the rotors slotted and cross-drilled? Also, how long did the rotors last?

 

depends on how you would drive it. daily go for slotted like powerslot or rotora. slottoed and dimpled EBC. if your doin some major auto cross i wouldn't recommend cross drilled, but they use cross drill on super cars.
