Cheap Cross Drill Slotted Rotors For About Any Car

[Smurf350z]

I found this a few months back and I thought it might just be some shitty set but I ordered some for my sentra and they seem to be a very nice set especially for the money...check out the 135 set for the s2k....135 bucks for high quality pads and 2 rotors.....thats crazy seeing as how the rotors would cost you about 50 bucks more than the whole shot with a wholesale discount....may be a nice way to go

I'd be VARY carful about stuff like this. I bought a set (not from the site listed) of "Brembo" rotors and kevlar-metalic pads. The rotors were CD/sloted. I learned the hard way and didn't do my reserch and ended up waising a ton of money on them. They warped to crap within six months, and the pads wore down in about half that. The pads were suposed to last as long as a stock setup with all OE products, but these parts failed miserably.

The thing is, cross drilling using OE vein design will destroy the structual integrety of the disk, allowing warping to occur much easier. They don't stop the car really any faster, and several of the brake places that I've talked to say that cross drilling on our cars is more for looks than anything else, and recomend plain disks to people who ran their car on the track.

The best thing you can do for the money with the S2k, is get a set of agressive compound pads. The next would be to get strictly sloted rotors. The slots will do the same duty as the cross drilling and will not loose the structual integrety to the level that the CD rotors do. You DO have to be carful about breaking them in though, as many a S2000 owner has ruined them by not braking in properly.

Otherwise there is dimpled rotors that are suposed to be CD look, but not loose the strength of the rotor.

Personally, I'd go either plain disk or sloted.
