help! brake rotor advice
last year i purchased some supposedly brembo rotors from ebay (never buy car stuff from there again). which to my luck they were probably mit (made in taiwan) replicas. these brake rotors suck becuase they rust up and make so much noise when braking. i was looking online for new rotors, the power slots and the rotoras. does anybody have any suggestions which is better or a different brand.

Get some that are plated (zinc, cadmium) if the rust is a problem for you. I believe that PowerSlots are coated, Stillen sells coated, and a lot of other places do, too.

No reason to run slotted or cross drilled, unless you want the looks.

Brembo has a part number for rear rotors, but I don't think they actually make them. You'll have to get a different brand for the rear.

Id go with the powerslots. Everyone I have talked to loves them. And as they said Brembo does not make the rotors you are talking about, and are not sloted, which sloting and drilled is usually worthless anyways

I like slotting -- evacuates water, has more surface area for better heat dissipation, they don't crack like cross-drilled, and they clean off the top layer of the brake pad nicely...
