F**K Highhats suggestion is the answer you are looking for and so far as my searching seems like the best upgrade for the money.

Tom, you chimed in on a previous post of mine concerning cracked rotors and you stated that although yours cracked relatively quickly they did not get much worse with more use. How did these fail? Did they rapidly fail or just start slowly cracking again. The reason I ask is mine are cracked pretty good, but well within spec. They have not gotten worse over the last 2 track days and I wonder what sets them over the edge? Thanks, Kevin

What's up with these guys? They're supposed to be the real deal aren't they?

Stoptechs are very good and still affordable. I know Colorchange uses them on his car...

so in a nut shell, it makes more sense to keep buying stock rotors at $130... use better pads like Pagin Orange.. and change to the racing brake fluid???
I'm getting my car soon and I need to improve my braking but do not want to spend $10K doing so...
