all i have to say is be weary of eBay... just like the old saying goes, if it seems like it's too good to be true, it often times is. to me, $99 for 4 rotors seems like it's too good of a deal. can't speak from experience though, and the seller does have a good rep. I guess i'm too timid to take a chance on something that is my first line of defense on the road. just my $0.02

You'll be surprised at how a good set of brake pads works very well with the stock rotors.

and i thought this thread was going to be about some new fangled type of lunch "break" not about stopping our cars better. i found this site www.raceshopper.com

I am guessing that they are Magnum brand rotors. I bought a set of them about two months ago and have not complaints. If you don't drive for a day or so they rust over kind of quickly, but that wears off after your first stop.

I bought mine from this seller:

I called the guy to buy the set of Brembos that he was selling and he talked me into the cheaper ones. I ended up buying the pads from the same seller as well. Got new stuff all around for about $220 shipped.

Another thing, the drilled rotors look pretty sweet. Much better than stock.

What do you need the brakes for? Track days, daily driving, or just better appearance? For daily you could just get Powerslot rotors and stock pads for better appearance. Or upgrade the pads with stock rotors. Stock is fine for just autox sessions.

I have a set of rear power slots on ebay for sell they are brand new not even out of shipping bag but dont have any fronts just type in power slot mazda

The stuff you guys get off EBay is not very good... I stay far far away from it... and many of the "brembo" rotors are NOT brembo made but "brembo" style... also, a lot of times Brembo rotors are actually pretty terrible... their calipers though are another matter .

I can source in KVR rotors and pads as well as EBC rotors and pads... and I can do them for less than the 350 for the rotors that you mentioned above (on the EBC's... the KVR's are more expensive.)

The stock rotors also work well with good pads and brake fluid for lapping days too.

 

[TurfBurn]

Yep... my monster runs plain old stock blanks all around (EBC Yellows, and Motul Fluid)... I'll never run drilled or slotted personally ... except maybe for looks

I agree with that.

Before I took my car out for a track day, I put Porterfield R4S pads in the front, with (new) stock pads in the rear; complete with original (40k mile) rotors and new brake fluid. Stopping power was (and still is) very strong!

I still have the pads on my car.
