I have not used the Summit ones. I got Brembo blanks from Strano and, together with my Hawk HPS pads, have been extremely pleased with the braking performance. Firm, strong feel and great braking power.

Depending on how often you clean your wheels and if you remember to warm up the pads...I would suggest hawks hp+ pads...from my experience, they are great!

i was under the impression that drilled and slotted rotors stop better and run cooler and the ones that most people in this post are saying to get dont have anything and are basically stock rotors from what i can tell

Brembo blanks and Hawk HPS pads. I like them better than the slotted/drilled ones I had.

Go with brembo blanks from a sponsor as said before, you will not be disappointed.

I don't know what your problem is man. I have the parts and no longer have the car. Never signed up, as I was a lurker and didn't have to. More than willing to provide more info (ebay feedback rating, whatever) if someone is interested.

Oh yeah, and the parts were originally purchased from a sponsor from this site, and I have the invoices to prove it. Thanks.
