I'm pretty sure I did post what was wrong
It was the green double solenoid in front of the UIM. Mine had a broken nipple so I ghetto fixed it with some super glue last time becasue I didn't want to pay 175 for a new one. So this time around I patched it up with that double compound bonding stuff and now it runs better then it did...no smoke out of the exhuast pipe after a few minutes of driving and its lost most of its hesitation. But I still feel hesitation in the 3000 range. But now I have a new massive oil leak somewhere, not sure what it is but it stops leaking when you turn the car off....So I'm guessing it is one of the pipes somewhere....have yet to check a little lazy right now.

Ray Crowe at Malloy would have sold it to you for 118.63 (free shipping) if you would have waited another day. For next time.

And no I wont wreck it either. Not after a year of put a lot of hard labor into getting it running. And on that note, I don't want to beat the car to a pulp nor beat at all. I've worked too hard and put too much money into it to wreck it. I was just a tad bit too excited, when I finally got it up and running without any smoking issues or leaks or hesitation or brake failure. Felt like posting that. I thought you guys would find a bit humoris to read but I guess I will just stick to more mature lingo from here on in. Actually it spun for 2 reasons. All the tires are all on the wrong way and it they were cold. I did not mount them. Nor can I get them off right now becasue the nuts are stuck to the paint on the wheels when the shop mounted them on for me right after gettin painted...don't ask. I sincerely apologize and promise never to post such childish posts ever again.
We were just bustin your ***** . Thanks for being a good sport. Welcome to the Club!!

Cross drilled rotors are for looks, they won't help your braking performance. If you want to avoid brake fade, bleed your fluid and put some super blue in it, and get some decent brake pads. you'll find that the stock brakes are plenty until you start upgrading the power.

If you do get new rotors, get some slotted vented rotors.

That's true. But personally if I was sure of which component was bad, I'd only put in a new part. Used parts can be a crapshoot as far as how long they'll last.
