Brake question

I have a 97 se-r and its time for brakes once again. i just recently turboed it and stopping that car is half the battle. I am looking to upgrade the factory brakes but not want to do a big brake kit, reason being is i have a set of b13 wheels with my nitto drag radials on them and the wheels will not fit over nx2000 brakes. Are the powerslot rotors from nopi any good? has anyone tried them? also what about brake pads? they have metal masters but are they noisey? Do they stop any better than just a normal brake pad? Any help/experience on this asap would be very much appreciated. Again, I am looking for a better stock replacement rotor and pads(stock size rotors and calipers). Thanks John

Rotors wont help you. Drilled rotors will make it even worse. Get some good pads from Carbotech aka MaddMatt. Pads will help more then anything. Brake lines will feel a little better but not really slow you down any faster.

I just received my powerslot rotors for my NX brake upgrade. They're huge and heavy. My stock SE-R rotors feel like paper plates in comparision. Regarding your upgrade questions, you can fit NX brakes under stock SE-R wheels if you grind the outside caliper just a bit (a few millimeters). Others have done this successfully. I'm in the process of doing it myself.
