yea, noah said they warp easier and you cant resurface them.
actually, i talked to a guy at brake masters and he said you cant resurface slotted rotors either cause the lathe will catch on slotted and drilled rotors. he suggested getting blanks cause he said if it warps, you can at least resurface them. im still a bit torn.

Dang if thats the case ill stay with what I have i wanted it for looks. A guy has a 05 Accord coupe that was at my shop yesterday and he had slotted. Im torn too I guess i can get some drilled for the rear for 50 but Drilled is bad I guess..

What do you think of a engine cover being white on my car would look huh? i wanted to expierememt

NO!!!! I am not wasting money on extra ballast. I would rather get a full body kit, no joke. RSX-S is 500 LBS lighter than TSX and has a short ratio, 6 speed gearbox. I knew I was gonna lose from dig, but rolling races are different.... RSX has less torque, so its harder for them to fight wind resistance

I got drilled..but I think they have a tendency to warp faster...

Maybe that depends on the maker too...

I bought cheap ones...how can I expect them to be really any good is how I look at it.

Hmm...what kind are they?

I don't know much they are worth...

I got my brand new ones with pads for like $120.

I don't know if you can get that deal anymore for what I got...

But...I only try to buy when I feel it is a good deal.

In this case...unless they were name brand...not sure how I would feel about it.

I don't know how he will be able to tell unless Kevin...the original owner knows.

And maybe he doesn't because he bought that CL already modded out like that.

I used to see that CL around and just gawk...how come he isn't on Azine...

Then he would just zoom off like he was bad azz and shit.

I would try to catch up and he would dash off a side street...lol
