Slotted rotors doesnt make a noticeable braking change/improvement. May keep fade away longer cool a little quicker on track bit very minimal. Slotted rotors are more for looks. Id get stock for $75.

slotted rotors are better because it allows heat to exscape and common since will tell u with rotors less heat resistance less stoping distance duh!!

My suggestion is buy the stock rotors and save money for bigger MC from integra or EX, or save for rear disc from Si. Something that will make a <U>noticeable</U> difference

HA HA HA HA HAH AHAHAHAHAHAHAH....it really does nothing. It still builds the heat and it is more prone to cracking. You are better off running a good vented blank then drilled or slotted. If you must have the hotness then slotted is better than drilled due to the stress risers that will cause the drilled rotors to crack like and SOB. I have run them on the track and they did nothing there was no difference so I save my money and run the Brembo blanks.

I also now have the EX knuckles, ITR calipers, redrilled Prelude rotors, 260v Non ABS Integra booster and MC, and stock ITR pads.

No your fine just using the stock MC and the brake lines are all the same just unbolt the old hub and bolt the bigger ones on. Real simple.

You dont have to stomp harder you actually should have MORE braking power.

You will have more pedal travel IE it will take the brake pedal a little longer to get into the braking. I would upgrade the booster and MC.
