If i was afraid for my bubble to bust I would never go outside or post in the forums :tongue: lolnot trying to bust your bubble or anything but rotors are the last thing id spend money on. go with new pads and brake fluid first.
if you do get new rotors tho. get slotted, dont get cross drilled.
Ah I did 33 West, but only been once on 33 East on my car... Where exactly is that? I wouldn't mind taking my gf up thereno problem. ill be looking for people to do alittle mountain driving with when i move down to waynesboro.
found this kick ass KICK ASS road right at the entrance to skyline drive. these pics were taken on the end were it turns into gravle. but before that its paved really patchy but smooth its crazy.

I guess my ignorance can help other people tooThis should help both CovertRussian and I... what are some good pads to go with? I hear for a lot of people Hawks are worth it.
Got a picture of those?I wouldn't even waste time with the cross drilled calipers.
Those are awesome. They prevent excess pressure buildup in the caliper, the last place you'd want it!!Got a picture of those?

Thanks :biggthumpNX2000 calipers, rotors. Altima master cylinder, and some steel braided lines, and you'll be stopping a lot better. I wouldn't even waste time with the cross drilled calipers.
Are those real?
Kaleco Auto... FTW!Are those real?![]()
Awesome! Thanks :biggthump .Covert...
You do not need even slotted rotors... most of the guys I know who roadrace do not even use them.
What you DO need is better pads, fluid, and TIRES. Tires will make the best improvement in braking short of pads.
Just because the PO said he put new pads does not mean they were any good. A cheapo set from PepBoiz is still crap and will fade quickly.
Hawks are good but not recommended on a DD car. Axis Ultimates are another good choice.
Get yourself a set of Brembo blanks from NOPI and you'll be set.
Oh yeah... get some better tires too.
