Default I recommend getting Brembo rotors

My breaks died on me while i had 7K miles on the car. Anyways i searched alot until i got the Brembo rotors with HP Plus pads. I just finished installing them and tried the breaks. The breaks are soo strong that the ABS sometimes cant stop it from Locking. Im going to Summit point tomorrow and i will give a feedback on how well the breaks will hold. I really like it soo far and i recommend it for anyone who is looking for a break system.

Tony,

The Brembo OEM rotors look exactly like stock rotors (I have them on my 2002 Z). The upgrade in braking performance is from the upgraded pads (but it can be a substantial increase in performance).

I just came back from Summit point race track and boy these breaks do stop. I never thought such a cheap upgrade($220-$270 Im not surre for the front rotors + HP plus pads) with help that much. I got break fade after 30min on the track so that means the Stainless break lines are a must. I might get me break lines next time im going to summit point.
