What do you guys think about those drilled/slotted rotors on Ebay? Are they worth spending the money on?

 

"Worth"? Worth in what way? Bling or performance?

First of all, there is no performance reason to have "drilled or slotted" rotors or BBKs on an S2000. The most intensely tracked S2000s in the country use OEM rotors and OEM brakes (but not OEM brake fluid or OEM brake pads).

Secondly, if you do anything but roll your car on and off a trailer at car shows, your brakes are a vital piece of car control equipment. You want to trust that to someone anonymous on eBay?

 

As for the bling factor yes thats why I will buying some of the cross drilled for my S2k, the slotted will sacrifice the wear of the pads. Meaning they will go thru pads faster as the slots slice across the pads, but will make you stop a little better. If you are looking for better brake performance at around the same price maybe even cheaper then. I would upgrade the pads to axxis, fluids to a dot 4 or better, and brake lines to stainless steel.

 

Moving to S2000 talk.

I got a set of drilled and slotted rotors from Jcarlton an owner in Florida who works at a company that supplies rotors to local law enforcement and such. The cool thing is that they were cryo treated to prevent warpage and microfractures. Cost was roughly $400/set of four.
