^ thats good deal for all 4 rotors and 8 pads for all corners for only $245 shipped, i got their premium ones(3500 grade) and they were a bit expensive but the quality was worth the money.

EDIT: just checked the above listing and its for 2005 G35 AWD! the rotors are different im pretty sure so make sure you choose the right model and year to get the right parts and pricing it might be a bit cheaper for our cars around $180-200 as listed before

^^ Saw that too kool. Plus, I don't know how it is with R1, but with other manufacturers the term " E-Line" refers to the ECONOMY line of their products and is usually inferior to the regular or premium lines. Also, did they ever mention the brand on the pads? All I saw was 'ceramic'.

^ yes youre right eline is economy line(i think its between 2500-2800grade) but they also offer their premium line(3500grade) which is what i got and they have been great for so many years/miles as listed before. Not sure about the ebay auction but i called in my order over the phone and they really know all their business and products and i ended up getting their Posi-quiet ceramic pads(which im guessing is what they include with this auction) which have been great with great braking, NO noise and the brake dust is hardly ever an issue.

^ they are good reliable sellers, if i were u i would call and order over the phone, the lady is very nice and offers good discount when you mention you were referred by someone on a car forum... her name was Dee from what i recall.

My advice would be spend a little more IF you can afford it and get their premium series rotors but e-line is good too.

chiming in... I ended up paying $250 for everything tax already included in this. I went through google and found a promo code and called their cust service and they were nice to accept the code even with it being a day late. The price will obviously vary based on what pads you get. I managed to get a few more pictures from different angle(s) and will post those tomorrow for you guys.
SO FAR SO GOOD!
by the way I checked and the lowest price I could get online off of their website was $286 free shipping of course. call them up see what they say if they have any promo's for st. pattys etc. lol

Unfortunately I didn't measure them but I'm pretty sure they are the same size as factory rotors, but just drilled. Correct me if I'm wrong?

^^ well, they'd pretty much have to be to fit with the calipers.

^ That's right! The more show intimidates the eye a little. I'm getting the brake lines replaced with stainless steel lines to see if it adds a little more braking power.

^ It won't. Stainless lines may make the pedal a little firmer, which will reduce the amount of pedal pressure required, but they will not give you more braking 'power'. You may not even notice a difference unless you heat your fluid up quite a bit. Their real benefit comes into play when tracking your car and generating massive amounts of heating to the fluid would otherwise cause the rubber lines to expand and contribute to brake fade. For the vast majority of users, they're overkill.

(that being said, I do have a set on my car just because )
