I do it in my basement on a drill press with a fixture that I made.
Any competent machine shop should be able to do it for you.

Redrilling the bolt circle of the rotor will not make your pads wear faster.

Do NOT "cross drill" your own rotors.

My uncle cross-drilled some stock (cast) rotor and it wasn't pretty they cracked right away he recommended using some steel (not cast) blanks if you want to attempt doing anything like that
BTW he owns a machine shop so he's def. got experience

Is he talking about drilling a 5 lug rotor so it fits a 4 lug, so you can do like a big break upgrade. If so where can you get this done, such as itr rotor to fit a gsr.
