Brakes Rotors, rotors, and more rotors (help me decide)

I need new rotors front and back for my '03 G35 Coupe (non-brembo). I've been looking for the last week and thought I was set to buy either the drilled rotors at Z1 Motorsports or the slotted rotors at Zeckhausen Racing. Both have been mentioned on this forum before.

Just out of curiousity, I went on ebay and found some insanely cheap prices. $150 (and less) for all four rotors?!? Considering the price, I'm not sure I can trust the quality...but then the seller has over 2000 for a feedback rating. Can that many satisfied customers be wrong?

Then, I'm talking about brakes in an email to a friend and google's context-sensitive ads point me to brakeperformance.com. There I can get a dimpled/slotted set of four for ~$330 shipped. They also have this black zinc coating that I think would look slick as hell with my black car.

Has anyone ever bought from brakeperformance.com before or have experience with these ebay deals? How cheap is too good to be true?

Oh...I probably will never track the car...spirited street driving only. Thanks in advance for any help.

talk to adam over at z1auto.com he will set you right. you can't go wrong with their customer service either, which, to me, is worth more than cheapy $150 rotors on ebay.

Do a search for R1 concepts. I just got all 4 rotors drilled slotted for $134. People here seem to like them and they are also an ebay seller. I picked them up myself since they are local. They are a legit machine shop.

Nissan/Infiniti OEM rotors = Kiriu rotors
Import Replacement Parts out of Washington State has them for an incredible
price (See link).

NOTE: These rotors will essentially fit all models with out Brembo Brakes.

Ive had best luck and best comments about the STOP TECH Rotors...

We have them available in Slotted, Drilled & Slotted, and Drilled...

For best pricing, pm your zip code, year of car and what you would like for the best price shipped.

We have OEM Pads and HAWK HPS Pads which are very low dust and low noise available as well!
