brakemotive rotors/pads!?
I've been seeing good things about brakemotive and at a decent price.il prob get their pads/rotors. Now jus need to decide if I should get slotted,drilled or blank rotors. The slotted and drilled are plated. Anyone else run their products? Thx in advance

I was thinking of hawk hps or plus actually but the deal on rotors/pad combo is pretty good. I actually like blanks a lot better but they don't have any coated blanks right now -__-

I have brakemotive slotted only on my car
I went slotted only because they look a little better than blanks, and I'm not going to run my street brakes on the track anyway. I think they're a great deal, we'll see how they hold up.

The slotted rotor design is also supposed to reduce brake fade and help cool the rotors as well. People prefer it over drilled because they think they dont have to worry about the stress cracks that goes along with the drilled ones. Me personally, I have both drilled and slotted rotors, and they're holding up great. I think they are the way to go, plus they look badass.

Hawk.
Modern drilled rotors add no real tangible performance benefit given today's pads but take away from the structural stability of the rotor. The first part has the potential to be false given the brake materials, but as for the second....

Damn. Then again I did same to the blanks on my 94 TA.

Hopefully getting mine on in the next week or so. I bought brakemotive pads and rotors and goodridge stainless steel braided brake lines front and rear so hoping the brakes will be a lot firmer and responsive

I am running a set of brakemotive drilled/slotted for over half a year..the car has seen numerous track days, speeds 130+ into 55 mph turns.... my rotors are fine..
People honestly need to get over that "drilled " crap...
Amg's and bikes have been running them for years without issues.. i drive my z hard and love my brakes..
