the rotors used by that other company are oem nissan rotors, which are zinc coated not to rust. my rotors are cheapo $30 napa rotors, so they rust. like i said in post #1, they still need to be painted

Casey, paint those beotches up man. I used engine paint in shiny black. It's held up pretty well for the quickie job I did on them.
Nice to see another Jeff/Candiman 13" Cobra rotor/300z caliper upgrade out there. I've only sold about 25 sets so far.

paint will prolly clog the pads and destroy them, but i honestly don't know.

you can paint your rotors and calipers while they're on the car without masking anything off. the paint will burn off of the surface of the rotor where the pad sits without doing any damage to the pads or rotors. just make sure you give it some gas when you go to move after they dry, the pads tend to stick to the rotor and needs to break free. the scraping noise will go away in about 1/2 a day.

Um I wouldn't really recommend that. Plus the rotor is very easy to take off. You can overlap a LITTLE but don't go crazy like those idiots on the VW boards! hahahaha
