Yes
PowerStop gets their blanks from the same foundries as Brembo, just made to their specs.

Powerstop Premium Rotors (available in slotted, drilled, or drilled and slotted) are the normal rotors sold by Powerstop. They are premium castings from the same foundries as brembo uses that are machined and plated in the Chicago area. The Kinetic line is a house brand made for us (Brakemotive) by Powerstop, using China made castings. That said we have had no complaints about either line. They are machined and plated in the same manner as the premium, however originate from a different foundry. These rotors I have posted here are heavily discounted as i have over 30 sets on my shelf and am just looking to clear some space. The premium line would normally sell for twice this price. The premium rotors have a 3 year guarantee from powerstop when used with their pads.

Just ordered The rotors and pads this morning. This is great offer for all 4 rotors and pads. Thanks Jim. Can't wait to get them and get them on. It will be nice to not have the car shake when I hit the brakes.

Hey, is that price for all 4 rotors or just 1 of the 4 on the car?
I have had the drilled only ones before on an 99 z and they were excellent.
Could almost lift the rear of the car off the ground under heavy braking.

The price is for a full set total of 4. I went with the evolution pads since it just a daily driver that is only driven on the weekends. $220 for a full set of brakes is a great price. Can't wait till they get here and get them on the car.

i just received the 4 slotted rotors and extreme pads for my car... they look awesome compared to stock... the customer service was outstanding and i received them pretty quick (includeding the messup by the shipping company) jim was friendly and answered all my questions... without a doubt, i will order from him again when the time comes...
thanks a ton jim
p.s. the brakes arent on the car yet, i have to wait for the new rearend and rims and tires before installation (the car is already torn apart)

Got my brakes in Saturday and installed on the car this evening. Unfortunately it started raining and I didn't get to really test the brakes. but it'll give me time to get them well broken in. Very happy with the service and the product. Here's a few pictures for everyone.

Now I just need to paint my calipers and it'll look great.

Currently I have nothing in stock for the 05-up GTO. I will contact my supplier and see what they have on shelf and get back to you via PM.
I recommend the Duplicolor spray on caliper paint with a clear over it. It will lay flat with a few nice even coats and if you clear it there should be no cracking or chipping issues.
