RE: Brake ques...
DO NOT BUY DRILLED AND SLOTTED ROTORS!!
Buy either drilled, or slotted. IMO, Slotted has more advantages than drilled. Gases vent better, pad bites the rotor cleaner- thus making the bite stronger and more consistant w/o locking up, and stays cleaner, and wet weather performance is supposed to be pretty sweet too.
Drilled and slotted takes up to 30% of the braking surface away, causing a reduction in braking power! Plus, drilled and slotted rotors are more proned to cracking than just drilled or slotted.
There's ALOT of info out on the net. Look into powerslot rotors, and their site has all kinds of good info on it.
