Awesome! Another quick question...have your rotors warped any? I'm just asking because on my dad's maxima we put ceramic breaks and his rotors warped because they hadn't been changed for about 3 years. So when you break from high speed, the steering wheel starts shaking. I'm assuming since these are racing breaks they shouldn't warp, but just want to be sure.

I am starting to feel a vibration when braking at high speeds and will be having the fronts turned. I found a shop that has turned drilled rotors as many around here will not. After 60k on these rotors I really can not complain.
