good quality rotors and cheap price really can't beat them.. anyways slotted or drilled rotors always seem to crack sooner or later

try http://www.nopionline.com

i like blank rotars because 1, they don't warp like cross drilled/ 2, they arn't as hard on pads as cross drilled/ and 3 they actually perform better than cross drilled unless you are racing 24 hours of lemans beacuse of the greater surface area.

brembo blanks all the way

Yes. A better combination of metals for high performance driving.

or are they cheaper?
Not always. My Brembo blank Prelude VTEC rotors were $74 each when I bought them.

just wanna know becasue i need to buy new rotors. anyone know where to buy them?
I got mine at Carparts.com, but that was a long time ago.

are the 17 dollar ones on nopi.com the ones for a 96 hatch? they are cheaper than the ones on groupbuycenter. the groupbuy ones are like 34 per rotor for the fronts. nopi was 17 each. unless im reading things wrong.

It should work fine. Brembo blanks are Autozone or NAPA rotors. You don't HAVE to upgrade pads, but if you do, I'd suggest Axxis or EBC Greenstuff.

but the braking performance will not decrease if i used oem pads that are already used with my new blank rotors, correct? used OEM pads and new brembo blanks = no decrease in stopping distance as comared with my current stock setup?

i only ask cause my friend said you should use high perormance pads with the brembo blanks.

I went to two autozone stores this weekend in my area and they looked at me like I had 5 heads when I asked for these rotors. They said they carry ammaco or somethign rotors. Are they call Brembo Blanks I remember a conversation about this a while back and someone said they are like 20 bucks from autozone. But I can not seem to find them. Thanks
