Default mismatch rotors

I purchased a rear brake setup from a 91 crx si. The rear rotors are slotted. I really don't what to spend the money for slotted rotors for the front. I was just going to throw some brembo blanks on the front. Do you guys think I will run into a braking problems because of the rotors being mismatch.

Thanks

No you'll be fine. The slotted rotors just help the gasses/heat escape from rotor surface. Thats the only reason they improve braking.

However if you upgraded your brakes from drum to disc then I would replace the master cylinder and proportioning valve so the system can perform the way it was designed.
