Default Brake Rotors?

The brake rotors that i have on my car now are cracked and glazed and it makes for a dangerous and uncomfortable stop. i own a 91 integra RS (no abs), and i'm wondering if anybody has made the switch to powerslot rotors. pros/cons? thanks..

I would stick with OEM. Unless you have brake fade, there is no reason for you to upgrade; well unless you have gobs of power and need to stop because you're driving too fast

OEM or Autozone rotors

Autozone rotors come with a warranty too, so they are a great deal. Here's a good link that discuss people using Autozone rotors even on the track; https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=181691

If you want better stopping power i would consider getting some better pads. But keep in mind that you will make some sacrifices with gettng better pads like more brake dust, might not operate as well when cold, and might squel a little bit more. Also i would recommend getting some better brake fluid like ATE Super Blue.

If it makes any difference i am running autozone rotors, cobalt friction gt sport pads, and ATE super blue fluid.

Those slots are great nucleation sites for rust in the wintertime. That cadmiun plating will not last long either. Like mentioned above, stick with blank rotors for the street.
