Ok,

I have installed and will now be reviewing the initial impressions of the Turbo Import Drilled/Slotted Rotors. I picked them up on Friday and had them installed. I think they look great. The straight slot and drilled look is exactly what I was looking for! I am still in the break in period for my new pads, so the rotors and pads are still getting used to each other in the pics. I currently am using new stock pads. First 50 mile impression...they feel the same as stock, but i am still breaking them in, so i wasnt pushing it yet.. Overall looks, well you be the judge, but I think they look pretty damn good.

Upon request, I will post pics of the rotors in a stock vs. zinc plated pic, but I think we all know what a difference there is. To all those that are in a bind between cad and zinc plated, only time will tell. I love the design on the rotors, they are different than most of the designs out there.

Weight vs. stock...The rotors are a tad bit heavier than the stock rotors. I didnt have a scale handy, but it was a a little heavier on the arm to arm scale. I have not noticed any performance loss. So, whatever power loss there might have been, it is definitely made up in the looks department.

If anyone has any questions, I am always here to help.

Oh ya, flame away on the calipers, I havent decided between black and red, powdercoat vs. G2 vs. High Temp paint. That is the next project. What fun is it if you do it all at once? A lot of fun i bet, but im one of those one mod at a time guys!

Hope you all like the rotors!

Looks similar to the Spugen drilled/slotted rotors Yours look great. Paint the calipers black. It'll show off those sick rims and rotors without drawing attention away to the calipers.
