Why did you post all your requests SEPERATELY?

KVR Performance makes crossdrilled, not slotted for our cars. If you look on the Yahoo 2nd Gen archives, you will find a link to buy them cheaply.

There are actually several vendors who will custom cross-drill, with chamfering of the holes, any quality rotor you want. You can get a set of slotted and drilled rotors from:

http://www.precisionbrakescompany.com/maxima.html

The prices on that list are per rotor. There are others, but this was the first I found.

Now, if only I could find 4-piston calipers...

You may have better luck looking in Seattle, most likely you can order online or by phone though.

Do not! It's normal to drive 5 inches from someone bumper, since we are going 2mph anyway, its not gonna do any damage if we bump!

Is not! Driving that fast in a downpour is called pressure washing the car!

HEHE...where I'm at in Texas, we don't get much rain, and the roads are surfaced with tar...so when it does rain, the oils in the tar seperate, and raise to the surface, floating on the water. This, in effect, simulates balck ice.

To top that off, no one here knows how to drive on wet pavement, even the cement paved highways, etc...

The hospital ER's all say that they know when it rains, because there car accident trauma's triple...

In addition, about 10 years ago, the Insurance industry collaborated to determine what were the 10 ten worst cities in the nation to drive in...Lubbock, TX - Where I live - was rated #2...#1 was Chicago, Dallas, TX was rated as #9...I have no idea how we'd rate now, but it couldn't be much better. I swear they pass out DL's in cracker jack boxes here...
