read the faq and recent post on rotors but am looking for specific recommendations in lieu of stock rotors or should i just use stock?
i am satisfied with the stock rotors and pads(i already have replacement nissan oem pads from courtesy(may return them and buy porterfield's) but thought something like brembo, bendix or whatever might be as good or better than stock rotors for the price. i don;t want slotted or drilled rotors.
would appreciate any recommendations and where to buy for the best price. thx...

How many miles are on your 99? Why are you replacing rotors so soon?

my rotors have been machined twice and its simply not as smooth braking compared to my friends 97 se in my sig picture. what do i need to do to get that smooth braking again. i do not want cross-drilled or slotted. i want stock size but smooth braking. should i just buy a new set of rotors? daniel b martin are you there? also. i if i buy new oem rotors do i need to have them machined at all or not. or are there any rotors that do not require machining.
