Think I might have slightly warped rotors. The car has a slight "lunging" stop, where it seems to grab more as at certain spots as the car slows down. Is rotor warping just a problem these cars have had on the front, or both front and rear. Also, what's been a popular replacement, performance wise, for the rotors and possibly pads?

get in on the group buy for the drilled and slotted rotors and whole sale direct parts. They are Brembo and only 299 for all four

Sorry, didn't do a search before this post. Now that I've read up it sounds like I should just go with a set of Brembo OEM blanks and a good set of pads, maybe Hawke HPS. Does this sound right, anything else?

Sounds like a good combination from what I have read. I am in on the group purchase andall the brake stuff is new to me.

Brembo OEM blanks and Hawk HPS pads are a good combination. I have them on my car. I got them from TireRack for $374 shipped.

If you are talking about the Wholesale Direct GP, then those are drilled/slotted. Those are not the Brembo OEM Blanks. From my understanding, Wholesale Direct buys Brembo Blanks and drills/slots them.

Here is some good reading on brakes:

That is exactly the combo I suggest for street cars. I've not had anyone yet who wasn't very happy with them (both of them). I'd avoid the drilled/slotted stuff (it sounds like you've already read why) and use the brembo/hawk combo, the difference is amazing.

Wholesale direct may have cleaned up their act, but i read a thread about their bad customer service and long shipping delays. I got brembo OEM blanks sitting in my room from Tirerack right now. think it was around 341 with tax and shipping for all four rotors. the pads are another 60-80 for ceramic, getting mine from autozone

Well I just paid for my rotors from whole sale direct and we will see how long it takes to receive them.

So I'll probably order the Brembo blanks and Hawk HPS. Do I need these all around the car, or just the front. And where can I find the best price? I'll probably order for all four corners so that the braking is consistent.

Tirerack is the place to order them from. i got all 4, but you really just need the front rotors. although you will then have 2 new rotors and 2 rusted ones
