Re: What (ebay) Drilled Rotors?

i've got brembo blank rotors i just installed on my 04 civic vp and they work great. they're not drilled, but my 100mph-60mph distance has dramatically shortened, not to mention my 60-0 stopping distance.

$100 shipped from dezod.com

Re: What (ebay) Drilled Rotors?

If you are not going to go with a big brake kit, then you do not want drilled rotors. Our rotors are so small that by drilling them you are just going to hurt their ability to stop the car. Explanation, by drilling or slotting them you are removing the much needed surface area on the already small rotors there by drastically degradating their ability to stop. Also the longer stopping distance and the increased pressure needed to stop the car will cause them to heat up quicker and not last as long.

Re: What (ebay) Drilled Rotors?

if u still want to go with drilled and slotted rotors, go to summitracing.com, i got em for like 55 a rotor, which aint bad, and i love em, they stop great, its constantly over 100 degrees here, so the heat dissipation helps a lot

Re: What (ebay) Drilled Rotors?

i've had brembo cross drilled and now the slotted. the drilled ones warped on me prematurely. the slotted seem a lot better, but i also upgraded to some SS brake lines at the same time. i'll be sticking w/ slotted but brembo blanks are always good too. your money, your call.

f1 cars don't use slotted and cross drilled front rotors and they brake from 200mph down to 60.

Good post, you just regurgitated what someone else said in a diff thread but at least you retained it.

A big +1 for you.
