Best Deal on New Front Brake Rotors
Need to get a set of new front brake rotors! Preferably a set of just slotted rotors but if there's a set that is different for cheap I'll do it.
If there's any good vendors on here with good deals point me that way!
Thanks

Go to a junkyard and grab some 98-02 v6 front spindles, calipers and rotors. Then get some new rock auto blank rotors (not economy) and you'll be way ahead of anything the puny stock lt1 front brakes can do. I will never put more money into the stock brakes, I wish I just upgraded years ago.

I went with BrakeMotive rotors from Ebay and Hawk HP+ pads from Autozone. Slotted and dimpled for $73. This is on a LS1 front brake swap. Takes a little heat to get the HP+ to bite but when they do, hang on. They dust a lot too. If I didn't autocross, I would stick with HPS.
These wheels were spotless before racing. This is after 2 days of autocross, maybe 20 60sec runs.
They are so dirty that when using an impact to take the lug nuts off, I jar brake dust loose and it falls off
