Slotted is sufficient.

im interested...
how big are the rotors???

sometimes you shouldn't get too big a rotor because our cars dont go fast enough to generate enough heat for those big rotors....

Yes and that you don't necessarily need Cross Drilled Slotted Ventilated Rotors, hey at least it won't warp as fast!

it's a bloody Brembo for crying out loud. it's not going to warp. it's not like a shop taking a drill and making holes on a rotor.

probably a brembo knockoff, where they buy blanks and then resurface/repackage them. anyway, cross drilled rotors suck bad. good pads would be those ones called "redstuff" i forgot which company makes them.

you make it sound like every cross drilled and slotted rotor warps.

most of the time, it's how you put it on.

Okay fine we'll drop that...

Installation is a vital key to prevent warping, TORQUE THE ROTOR properly! Also remember to break-in.

that's so sad if a shop actually do that and sell it to dumb ricers and claimed they are the real brembo cross drilled
hahhahhah so Ghetto
good one

and azimuthX is the man....he thinks he knows so much about 7th gen civic

his knowledge on 7th gen > me (i think)


anyway that's good price on REAL Brembo Cross Drilled

from tirerack.com:

"EBC Redstuff Sport/Track disc brake pads are designed for heavier sports cars, coupes and sedans used for fast high performance road driving and “track days.” as well as some race applications for light and medium weight vehicles. EBC's semi-metallic Redstuff formulation is a true asphalt race pad with a medium lifetime.

EBC Redstuff pads (friction level of 0.3µ) used on the street will feel more like standard original brakes (typical friction level of 0.25µ to 0.35µ). EBC Redstuff pads offer high resistance to brake fade and a friction level that steadily rises with temperature to reach 0.33µ at 1380° Fahrenheit. This makes them appropriate for extreme high speed driving and repetitive heavy braking use, as well as, for racecars. Redstuff brake pads provide longer pad life than Greenstuff brake pads under extreme conditions with virtually no brake rotor abrasion and wear.

Features and Benefits of Redstuff

Friction co-efficient starting at 0.3µ and rising to 0.33µ once warm
Medium initial bite with friction steadily increasing with heat
Heat stable to an incredible 1380° Fahrenheit
Low disc abrasion
Brake pads are wear items and as such, should be inspected regularly and replaced as necessary. Pads should be replaced when approximately 1/8” of friction material remains on the steel backing plate. Drivers who participate in track days should always take spare pads to the track."

redstuff > greenstuff

i think 120 mph qualifies as high speed like said high speed above.

I try not to think that because I don't.

I'm just here to PW and make friends, not enemies okay IAMFOB? Sorry if I've offended you?

Sounds like a great deal for a pair. My 2nd biggest complaint of the 7th gen was the brakes. Get aggresive on those brakes, and they wobble all over the place. No confidence in them.

I'm definately in for a group buy.
