Thread: need some help with rotors

i need some good performance drilled and slotted rotors...anyone good any good suggestions from a specific site? all would be helpful
thanks

i would get powerslots....i hear they are good and some tracks wont let you run drilled rotors only slotted at least thats what i heard....

ok thats alittle helpful, i don't plan on resurfacing them but u kno how that goes...just it's time to get some new rotors and this time i want an upgrade from factory...factory ones have pretty much had it, had them turned 2 x's

I like my powerslots.

visit V12 brake shop they seem to have a good product. Drilled/slotted front and rear rotors for 04 grand prix and up including ceramic pads for $249.00 or just rotors alone, $179.00

wouldnt get drilled rotors. they get stress cracks pretty easy. i would just get slotted ones. or dimpled and slotted ones. the "drilled" ones you see on cars like porsche and mercedes were forged with those holes, if they are actually drlled into the rotor it disturbs the structure, and they can crack. id stick with slotted rotors. i personally am getting ebc's dimpled and slotted rotors

AND can say that I have heated the brakes up so much on the mustang that they were smoking for about 3 minutes anfter I finally managed to stop.


I think the issue that you were talking about was more of an issue when the holes were not chamfered.


Again I have had no issues with any of the ones I have purchased.

just what ive seen from my experiences. my friends stang had cross drilled rotors and they got stress cracks. and one of my friends had them on his camaro, same thing happened. i just think its better off being safe and going with slotted rotors, they will be just as good with expelling the surface gases, and dirt, and have about as good cooling as the cross drilled ones, unless the "drilled" ones actually are forged with the holes in them.
