Ok I have had my car for about two years now and need a brake job, but trying to figure out if i should go after market or just go to the dealer and get a stock rotors and pads. My rotors arent in bad shape but might as well get everything done and get it over with.
What do you guys think? stock or aftermarket
If not in the dealer any suggestions where be a good place to go not 100 miles away.
P.S yes im a newbe in the forms so still figuring out how to post.. lol
I was in a auto club in NY couple years back in my honda days but i dont know any machanics out here so i would appreciate you guys help
After brakes i will start with clutch.
I think thats enough homework for today.... Thanks

 

go aftermarket upgrade your rotors there not that exspensive

 

You can get from StopTech the "stage two" kit. It includes new rotors, Hawk HPS pads, Stainless Steel brake lines and MOTUL 600 fluid. It's a really good upgrade for the stock calipers.

One word of caution, DO NOT GET DRILLED ROTORS!!!!!! Get the slotted rotors, see the pic below.

 

^ second what he said, drilled rotors are very nice, but unless you are willing to spend top dollar, go with just slotted rotors. Stop teck stage 2 is def the way to go if you want a fairly inexpensive but good upgrade. just my $.02, GL though with what you choose

 

im not a fan of cross drilled unless you show. weakens the rotor. slotted is fine. get the pads and rotors and do it yourself.

 

Thanks after seeing the pic above yeah ill go with the slotted rotors. thanks for the help im going to try to make it to the next meet. I hate doing things to the car then having to redo it again for not knowing whats best or cheaper. lol
Any shops you guys know? theres only two that i know which are speed zone in kissimmee and the dealer. any suggestions...

 

most shops should be able to do a brake swap pretty easy.

 

You can even do it your self if you have basic tools and a few hours of time.

Oh, and you'll need patience

 

Whatever you do, don't get brake rotors and pads or brake work done at the dealership. You will get hosed.

These brakes are easy to work on yourself with a few tools.

 

I have slotted and drilled rotors and love them. They stop great. Non-Brembo

 

Try these guys...Pro Automotive. They installed the rotora big brake kit on my friend's car, forum member eldgebroni. Also tecni, another forum member here on driver works there (he's since sold his G but is very familiar with the car as he's gone as far as built block motor with turbo all installed by himself).

Wish i had the money for the big brake kit.. but i dont have the money or the horse power to need them lol(not yet).. but thanks for the info

 

You would be VERY suprised how hot the OEM brakes get on a track. SMOKIN'

 

slotted are by far the best for the street
