Should I get this package?

http://www.g35parts.com/9083/osc/pro...roducts_id=294

StopTech Stage II: Non Brembo Coupe/Sedan '03-'04

StopTech's SportStop slotted, StopTech stainless steel brake lines, Axxis Ultimates street performance pads and 3 bottles of Motul RBF600 brake fluid. Rotors, lines and pads are for both front and rear. Components can also be purchased separately. FITS STOCK CALIPERS. Benefits: Slotted rotors prevent glazing of the pads, add bite and improve wet and dry braking performance. StopTech's SportStop rotors have a durable black coating on the non-swept areas of the rotor to prevent unsightly corrosion, and quality is assured as the rotors are manufactured to meet or exceed all OE specifications. Stainless steel brake lines improve pedal feel and reduce the amount of time between applied pedal pressure and actual deceleration by preventing expansion, which stock rubber flex lines allow. High performance street pads provide you with higher resistance to fade, higher maximum operating temperature, and better initial bite to allow consistent deep braking into corners. Motul RBF600 brake fluid increases both wet and dry boiling points and prevents boiling even under the most severe operating conditions. Good for street and autocross. Not for extended track sessions.

Price: $699.99

Yay or nay?

This is a lot cheaper, no fluid, and I don't know how much you give up in 'quality'. They claim their parts meet or exceed OEM. Of course, they have
to. But are certainly a lot less expensive than factory.

They do have higher performance parts but I don't know if they are the best for street use.

Am I reading that correctly?

$187.99 is for 4 (2 f/2 r) slotted/cross drilled rotors and the pads for each rotor? Why is that so inexpensive?

That's how I read it. Wondered the same thing myself. that's only about $45 a wheel including pads and rotor....I got the link on here, might have been another forum.

I was considering the cryo-slots at tirerack. The same kit there would be about double that price. Well, just over $300 (without brake lines or fluid) . A good choice too I think.
