For those who have them, how much did you pay and where did you buy them from?

Also are the cross drilled rotors from power stop worth buying or should I just stick with the stokc Nx rotors? thanks.

I bought the calipers from Pep Boys. They came out to $75 each + $60 core (I had spare NX calipers, so they refunded the core charge). I bought the rotors from Courtesy Nissan in TX for $55 each.

Stick with stock NX rotors, unless you're *really* in to the looks thing. Cross-drilling doesn't really help provide better braking; it does make the rotor more prone to cracking, though. Just get the NX brakes with OEM rotors, with good brake pads, good brake fluid, and best of all, good tires!

Got mine from Carparts.com. Loaded Wagner calipers. Comes with the mounting bracket which you must have. Got some rotors CHEAP from www.brakeco.com. $30 Chinese rotors. Yes, they are just fine. I race on them. Did 6 track schools on a set before they finally warped.


Edit: Oh, yeah, forget the cross drilled sh!t. They may cost twice as much, but at least they don't work any better and they crack quicker.
