Mellowdien, you also did not perform any break in procedures, correct? I saw your post the other day...and it looked like you had no idea about any break-in

Just thought I should drop my .02c on this.

I would never buy sloted or drilled rotors unless they are oem and or from a company like stoptech or brembo. In any case solid vented rotors are just fine, I find nothing wrong with the oem rotors excep they are not big enough, if you want repeated reliable braking you need mass. The only upgrade worthwhile would be a good set of pads and a full brake fluid flush with better fluid. If you want to go a step ahead that would be steel braided lines as well. Other than that a big brake kit is what is next.

As for big brake kits, be careful, they can change brake balance and a fully tested setup from a reputable manufacturer is what is needed. I am very satisfied with the ford racing brembo setup. For the money it is very good bang for the buck.
