The front left side rotor of my S is a little warped now after some 60,000 miles of abusing it and I guess its time to replace them. My question is should I stay with the same crossdrilled and slotted or just slotted? What you guys think? there is about 100 dollars difference between these two which of course the drilled one cost more.

pics here.







and also the Wilwood release their new combination parking brake caliper rear brake kit(finally) which also there's a diffrence of 130 dollars between the crossdrilled/slotted and regular slotted....which i'll be getting also.

here's the pics






What you guys think? Should I go for the crossdrilled/slotted again or just slotted? Need to decide....

If you track the car the drilled and slotted would be good...... If not stick with the slotted. Most normal cars will never need the extra venting from daily drive abuse. However now that I think about it you are supercharged Maybe the drilled/slotted would get some good use

^i would say the opposite, if you are going to track your car, i would go with just the slotted, drilled rotors are more prone to cracking. if you are only going to street it and prefer the look of the drilled/slotted that would be okay. i vote for slotted

Yesteraday I went out to lunch with a friend. We went to 5 Guys for burgers. As we walk up to the counter there was a lady who was finishing her order and starting to pay. Both of us ordered from the other register, got our drinks and started to sit down before she finished paying.


She had a ziplock bag full of nickles she was using to pay for her lunch.
I started to think she had knocked over a bubble gum machine.
