Default any suggestions on where i can get cheap front rotors?

a mechanic told me my brake rotors were warped, and thin, and so i have been looking on ebay, and have seen cross-drilled or slotted rotors, in the $50-100 range, but sometimes people outbid you, so does anyone know of any good wholesale prices for two front rotors for 90crx si???, thanks

i can just get those at napa, but i saw a deal on ebay, which is $48 for two front brembo rotors, (not the cross-drilled ones, just plain solid ones), would you say thats a better deal? or is that just a name.

i mean, would those be any different than the oem replacements at napa? or not, what do you think?

Just a warning on the Napa OEM replacements...

I have good friends that work as Honda Techs in Amherst NY. Many a time they see those aftermarket rotors warping at the first heated brake puddle they contact. They HEAVILY advise to use OEM Honda rotors. They are not too expensive and take much more to warp

Check out http://www.collettimotorsports.com/ they have great deals on real Brembo OEM replacement rotors. I would stay away from the rotors on ebay, even if they are real brembos they are probably from the Qualitee product line which is total crap.

i never thought of that, so have you heard about ebay being "defects" that are leftover???? if so, let me know, cause i have been wanting a lot of stuff on ebay, and if they are just the "bad" leftover products, then i will stay away from it, but if anyone has had any bad experiences with any ebay products, be sure and let people know, cause i dont' wanto to be scammed in any way.

Don't be cheap when it comes to brakes. Get some Brembos.

i dont buy **** from honda... its a screw job. oem replacements have been fine for years and have never warpped. and i dont warp my breaks b/c i dont drive like a retard and ride them all the time. 1st any only time i went to honda for anything was to get the side molding for an 88 hatch. $70 **** that. i silicon glued the bitch on there (i really only needed the clips) looks fine and cost about 67$ less. your an idiot to buy anything from a dealer

thats why i buy nice pads. rotos will get chewed up no matter what. and if your warping your rotors you've got a prob w/ your breaking skillz. unless your road racing or something you dont need cross drilled/slotted rotors. hell i dont even change my drums in back. just change front discs. stops on a dime and doesnt warp
