Brake Rotors
I've heard of two makers for brake rotors, Bradi and PowerStop. Since I need to replace my brake pads in the next month or so, what would you reccomend as a top quality (but good price) rotors for the SC400?
One more question, where can I buy steel-braided brake lines for the SC? Thanks!

Can you post the price of the rotors and the brake pads that you found.
Check out Cyberauto.com for their pads and SS brake lines

Bradi Rotors: ~270$ all 4 (ebay).
J-Power Rotors: 500$ all 4.
Power Slot Rotors: ~700$ all 4.
Power Stop Rotors: lost the link, but i think around 460$
i haven't done much searching for brake pads, but i'm think of Tom's Racing.

I just bought a set of brake pads for my SC400 from KVR performance through Cyberauto.com for $131. But come to think about it a set of Ceramik (sp) from napa with lifetime warranty soud a lot better.

Do these grooved or cross drilled rotors get pressed or turned if warped? Isn't there a special process since, the area is different than just stock rotors?

If you warped the sloted (sp) or cross drilled rotors, you have to buy new rotors.
