GD is dead but ask what his normal costs are. I personally won't buy rotors off ebay.
this is the original thread to the GD. Again, it's done now but riding with these, I'd pay full price if I had too.

I bought drilled/slotted rotors off ebay for my last 3 cars. I got my set of 4 slotted/drilled rotors off about 5 months ago and they're perfectly fine. Just make sure they're coated with something so the holes/slots won't rust.
These guys are most likely taking oem blanks and machining them. Then coating. Still cools better than stock blanks, which helps in the warping issue.
That price in the auction is about what I paid also.
Good luck!

Chern,

you got your rotors from the same company?

rotorpros.com?

If so i just might buy some tonight, is the bite more agressive?

Speaking of brakes, and i hope im not hi-jacking this. Would those rotors work with the Brembo Calipers from the 350Z?

I want brembos on my car and those rotors, i just cant find any info on it.

Thanks,

Kam

Jay (GD guy) just sent me an e-mail and he said he'd give me the same price when he comes back to the US in September. Sounds like this is the way to go, I think I'm going to hold out for now if my brakes will hold out until then is the ?

I know chrisaust just ordered from them this week, haven't heard from him. I don't think he would have gotten them installed yet anyways...

I was looking at these as well:

I'm getting mixed reviews from everyone so just go with your gut I guess...

I have the same as chernmax. Did not get them from rotorpros. I don't remember the name of the company but you can e-mail Linda Rizzo at wdpinc@sbcglobal.net to see if they are still making them. I also have Hawk HF brake pads. Brembo does not make rotors for the 6thgen. Call them up and ask if the 350Z calipers will fit.

Thats chermax's head and the URP on the right


With the rim on.

Awesome

I will find out about the rotors from Linda, and the Brembo Brake Calibers that come on the new 350Z does anyone know if there is a way to mount the OEM Nissan 350Z Brembos on the 6th Gen max? I dont know if there is an adapter kit or anything? Looked cant find anything.

Thanks,

Kam

I got a set of cross drilled off of Stillen's web site and I have to say they have been great. I am very hard on brakes and have yet to warp my new set of rear rotors. The fronts are getting put on next week.
