if its made in china its not a big deal due to the product being a piece of metal. the cnc machine would do everything and unskilled labour would not touch the product aside from shipping it. so i dont think it being made in china is a big deal. unless the engineering was also made there, or they skimmed on the quality of the metals

hey guys soo f* confused about which rotors to get, many of my friends say if you have brembo's on you car i should not get cheap rotors... I got a quote from partsource for Brembo x-drilled rotors $1,096 and I get 17% off at partsource so I basically save a little more than tax good deal?

Any thoughts on ebc rotors, roughly a little cheaper quote than the above

#1 go to autopartsway.ca for all your parts, will be a lot cheaper then partssource
#2 DO NOT GET CROSS DRILLED ROTORS
#3 Get the EBC Slotted rotors and EBC red stuff pads

Revolution Autosport - Rotors&Brakes -Revolutionary Ripoff

Anyone who is even thinking about dealing with these guys, Revolution Autosports (an ebay seller) really should reconsider. I have made that mistake and got the wrong product which I had to return at my own expense and now face a complete refusal to honor my deal. I have had to go through PayPal and ebay complaint processes in an attempt to get my money back. Right now I am OUT a couple of C notes. Needless to say I am unimpressed. But am taking action.
So save yourself the aggravation and go somewhere else... the guys at Revolution Autosports are a revolutionary Ripoff.

Don't say I didn't warn you.

Thanks for the warning, but excuse us if we take it with a grain of salt.

Revolution Autosport - Rotors&Brakes -Revolutionary Ripoff

InTgr8r,

Thanks for the greeting.
Yes it was my first post... and here is my second.
You on the other hand have made 14,125 posts, all of which were filled with helpful content I'm sure. I happened to "Google" Revolution Autosports today and saw the address to the thread... that's all... if you don't want to know... well that's ok with me too... you can take it with a grain ... or not.
But just in case this becomes a contemporary discussion once again... then there quite possibly might be others that would like to know of my recent experience with this company.... or do you speak for everyone?

Brembo fit 4 drilled and slotted rotors with ceramic pads... $269 US plus shipping. They work fine for me!
