well its time for new front rotors and was wondering what ones are the best, to my knowledge the ones i have now are just stock ones, i was lookin at jsc and saw the DBA rotors and the stoptechs. i was leaning towards the DBAs but was wondering if the 4000 series is worth it over the street series, as for driving its my dd and i hope to track it a few times in the summer,

thanks,
jake

Never heard a bad thing about DBA rotors. I'd ask DBA directly about which one to go with...they are very helpful in answering questions, in my experience at least.

Check this site out www.brakeperformance.com
Their dimpled and slotted rotors are awesome.
Free shipping & free pads.
My friend James (Boostedbogan) runs them on his 06 WRX Ltd.

The cheapest blanks you can find. Save your money for hookers and blow.

^^ agreed.

I run "mountain" rotors on my 4pots with EBC reds and she stops on a dime

Supraru · 04-06-2010, 07:36 PM

Agreed with all. I run some cheap advance auto rotors. I spent the dough and got the dba's and loved them but I was also running some serious track pads on them. Lets just say the pads ate right through the rotors in less then a year. Never again will I run expensive rotors. And I also learned if I'm going to run track pads only run them when I hit the track and have blanks for them too.

Powerslot makes some quality rotors.

pookey999 · 04-10-2010, 03:31 PM

i ended up just goin with the dba's and hawk pads

05scooby · 04-10-2010, 05:05 PM

hope you don't mind cleaning ur wheels. lol...
I have hawk pads, and they've got to be the most dust throwing pad I've ever seen.

i just but DBA 5000 series slotted rotors on mine, got them brand new from rallispec for like almost half the price you see them normally online (i think in the $400+ range). Great look great rotors.

pookey999 · 04-14-2010, 05:58 PM
