I need Rotors ASAP

Guys I need rotors ASAP. But dealer and local shop cost is way to expensive. Anyone know of anything good and cheap?

Thanks.

Call Wood @ raceconcepts.net....Maxima group deal price of $200 for dimpled/slotted, slotted, or solid rotors for Maximas through 2K1 I believe. Do a search in the Group deal section for specifics...I think BigDoggJonx helped set this one up but I'm not positive...

Good they are supposed to be....I've heard of noise issues early on with the dimpled/slotted ones. I'm planning to order only slotted ones for my 2K1 soon. From what I've read here and on other forums, anything other than the stock rotors will be warp (ie judder) resistant as long as proper breakin procedures are followed.

Has anyone with a 2001 MAX have their rotors fixed with the TSB?

Greek..dat be me...when I had the car in for

the transverse link recall I asked the service manager to mike them for run-out/warpage as I was beginning to feel a very slight shudder when braking moderately hard & not only did they mike them but they turned them as well..no questions asked...
Perfect now...

Don't take this wrong, but you (or someone) would have to educate me as to how these rotors at well over $300 are better than the ones currently under group buy terms at www.raceconcept.net at $200 for a set? I hope this doesn't come across as nasty, just wondering if I'm missing some reason I shouldn't order the more cost-effective rotors in this case.

Exactly my opinion. Not only will you get a true hook-up at www.raceconcept.net but, call Paul at www.avalonracing.net for a hook-up on Stillen pads. Just be sure to tighten all bolts well when doing the job(I've got a story about what happened to me). It's a direct replacement. The whole set-up will set you back about $415 and your Max will ride like never B4. PM me if you have any particular questions.
