Apex seals 2mm vs. 3mm
Okay I did a search on google and only pineapple racing has a direct comparison but thier site is down or something. So, pros and cons of both for a street driven 7 that will remain sequential (maybe BNR upgrade though)??

Ther has been quite a bit on this, I have 3mm machined Rotors which should give an extra measure of reliabilty under detonation or preignition. Some would not agree though, for the extra $50US per rotor to machine it was a good deal for me. Some outfits charge too much for this and it has to be done correctly. IMHO

RZFD, search (im not tryin to sound like an ***), but theres like a 10 page or so thread specifically on that (instead of starting a new 10 page thread). One post cant give all the info you need, but that thread has posts from all the guru's on the forum. It is very insightfull.
But it basically boils down to tuning. If you can tune, or have acess to a good tuner, 2mm will work just fine. 3mm give a LITTLE more room for error. . . . as for how much, ask the shop you intend to take it to for the machining for 3mm.
