My opinion is that they are rotors, cheap, ****ty rotors that will suck immensely. Plus don't go with cross drilled.

these are brakes, not gas. If you use bad gas, all that can prob happen is seize your engine and you won't go anymore. Bad brakes can lead to crashing into people and hurting them and yourself. just think about it, regular brembo blanks are about $38 each. why would the slotted cross drilled eb the same price?? you do get what you pay for. i wouldn't suggest it. You might not be able to stop

Can't really comment on those but speaking from experience I purchased a set of 13" cobra rotors for my BBK from these guys and they are fantastic for the money. ( See my domain for pics) I have absolutely no complaints they are crossdrilled and slottled. Stopchek are currently not listed but they will be today I'm sure they're on ebay all the time don't hesitate because of the cheap price I know I did (but I figured $85 & $12 shipping for 13" rotors was worth the risk) I'm 100% happy with mine. Stopchek & Raceconcepts prices basically the same just shipping was cheaper from me:

These guys are also very good I've been told:

There's a guy on ebay that sells brembo blanks and they slot and cross drill themselves and silver zinc plate them. My friend bought all 4 for $250 shipped and they have been on his car for about a year now with no rust or any problems. I'll try to find out who the seller is for ya.

im very skeptical of buying "performance"parts on ebay. most are just cheap immitations of the real deal. i dont know anything about these specifically, but watch out.

Thats so true^. 90% of the parts on ebay that are labeled JDM arent marketed in japan.

Yes, but their stock rotors cost more than your car. They are most likely ceramic or carbon rotors which are made to handle high temps. The ones that we can buy will most likely crack after some HARD stops. Cross drilled rotors are bad, this has been discussed and beaten to death.

My opinion:

Rotors that have enough holes in them to actually make any difference WILL be more crack/warp prone.

Rotors that are just drilled for cosmetic purposes (such as these in the ebay ad), "probably" won't crack/warp. But then again, there's probably not enough holes in them to do anything anyway.
