M2 Big Brake Kit

When I got my FD it had the M2 Wilwood big brake kit installed (Front). One of the rotors is warped, so I was going to replace both. I went to wilwood's site and they have many different styles. Does anyone have a part number for the replacements? I tried to email M2 since their phone number is not on their site, but I have not gotten a response. I heard slotted rotors we not able to be turned. Any truth to that? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

No. You can still turn slotted or drilled rotors.

I've heard negative things about Wilwood's rotors. Can you replace the rotor with that of another company?

I dont know.. I would definately like to explore my options. I wish I could get ahold of M2 so they can tell me which rotors are used in their application. Are they out of business or something? Their website looks half completed and there is no contact info other than an email address that I could not get a response from..

Both Coleman http://www.colemanracing.com/
and Essex http://www.essexparts.com/index.shtml
can supply you with new rotors to fit the M2 rotor hat.
