Brake disc
#3
I think the Brembo's are good value for money. It seems everyone's rotor abuse varies quite a lot though. I absolutely roasted my Brembo blanks at Laguna Seca, to the point of boiling ATE brake fluid pretty badly, and they are still holding up just fine.
If you are interested in a two piece floating setup in the stock rotor size that will work with the OEM front caliper, the guys at Girodisc will have an S2000 application available very soon. The price is obviously much higher than a normal one piece rotor, but the replacement rings are priced quite well relative to other 2 piece setups. In the end I think this is the most cost effective option even though the upfront cost is so much higher. And not ever having to deal with cracked rotors could be worth it.
Thanks for the heads up on the Brembo discount! I will likely pick up another front set.

It really just comes down to how often you go through rotors in the end. But a rotor that is better at clearing the heat will also mean less pad wear, less hub/bearing wear, less caliper wear, brake line wear and so on. It seems like the core of the problem and a good one to solve.

We're lucky we have common rings with our BBKs. Your discs are larger than mine, but I can't imagine you're paying much more for rings than me.

I don't think the Girodisc are available quite yet but should be very soon.
