Any advice on Stock Brakes?

I've done my brakes in the past and used Nissan rotors and pads from DaveB. If I decide to go to a slotted or drilled rear rotors, does anyone have a good source for inexpensive brembo rotors? (I have drilled Brembos in the front now, but forgot who I got them from).

Also, what's the main difference between slotted and drilled rotors? (My car is a 2000 SE, bone stock).

Thanks,
Bill

Look in the classified and check out the group deals from AutoMax_95. He'll take care of you and has fast speedy shipping. He did me right, so I dont mind passing along the word, but you can see from the thread that he sells to many many org. members. Stand up guy!

i've used brakeonly rotors and quietstop raybestos pads - the rotors have served me much better than the direct brembo replacements. the pads are ceramic and have been very good to me as well.

Why not just get blanks? Slotted, drilled are more for looks unless you take your car to the track.
