I'm looking to try out the carbotech xp8 front and rear, anyone know where the cheapest place to get these? I also need front and rear rotors. Was hoping to buy these together and save some money if possible.

 

I got my carbotechs from speed freaks

and rotors from here, they're stupid cheap

I could never find them discounted.

I ended up going right to them and I got factory fresh pads at a tad less than I could find them on the street.

Call Danny Puskar(he is co-owner of the company or something, great guy)

Those rotors must be the best Chinese junk steel every made. How have they held up for you?

 

They were about double those prices when I bought them.. They held up to sebring with xp10/xp8 just fine for a noob. Was pointed to that place by other FL S2K guys running them.

 

How long should I expect these rotors to last? REPH271149 is 4.65 each, REPH271127 is 8.42 each. total with shipping and handling is 38.88. I'm guessing one track day?

 

Too many variables to say. When I was researching I found that alot of people say to buy the cheapest rotors possible because eventually the fronts will crack. All depends how hard on brakes you are, how hard the track is on brakes, do you have a brake cooling setup? Talk to people with S2000s that run your track and see what they use.

Mine looked fine after the weekend but it was my first time out.

 

I'm currently on my own set of extremely cheap rotors and I have already done 1 track day at Laguna Seca on Project Mu Club Racers. They look like they have plenty of life left.

 

$4 for a brake rotor???????

 

Thanks for the cheap rotors link. I bought a set of rotors there along with OEM rotors and OEM pads for street use. I'll report back how the chinese steel does on my next track day. For 40 bucks, I only need them to last one day and I'd be happy.
