Stillen rotors = Brembo

Brembo does not make cross drilled or slotted rotors for our cars. They only sell blanks which are modified and resold. (ie-Stillen)

hehehe

As already been said.. stillen rotors ARE Brembo crossdrilled/slotted..

since you don't like them, I suggest buying blanks and not messing with the cosmetic crap like drilling/slotting. they only cause more problems down the road.

Don't waste your time with the plating, it will either ruin the performance or wear off.

Get a good set of rotors, like Brembos, slot them if you want, cross-drilled is not as good as slotted, and get some Hawk street pads.

But before you consider any rotor upgrade, upgrade the hoses. Overheating the system causes the hoses to stretch and that aint good.

If I were you I would just go with Brembo blanks and Performance friction pads. Slotted/Drilled rotors are more for looks.
