brake rotors
ok, so i've done a search and i still have yet to get a really solid answer as to who makes some good rotors for the IS F
i see a lot of posts about the pads (which i have on order) but i need to get a set of rotors too (front and rear) so i'm wondering if anyone has any good or bad experiences with after market rotors...
thanks in advance...

They are Raybestos premium rotor. Not sure if anyone has used them yet, but they are significantly cheaper at $106 each. Let us know how it goes.
Advanced Technology
Raybestos Advanced Technology : Premium Grade
* Advanced Technology NO TURN GUARANTEE
* Advanced Technology Mill Balanced
* Advanced Technology Metallurgy
* Advanced Technology Rust Prevention Coating
* OE Vane Configuration
NOTE: Advanced Technology rotors replace the PG Plus, but due to existing inventory, and packaging, parts listed as Advanced Technology may be labeled as PG Plus, and both are of the same quality

Fronts and rears are here.
Anyone heard of these guys? They seem to be well received on other forums. Any one using them?
I want a plain faced track worthy rotor that won't crack easily. I sent them an inquiry to ask if their rotors are up to track duty.

So here's the only thing I can find about them where something bad happened:
http://www.ls1gto.com/forums/showthread.php?p=5480684
and Cquence stepped up right away with a new rotor. Can anyone else find anything bad about them?
I've called the other place - Brake Performance - and they don't have anything available right now. Their wholesale sales manager said they won't know about production until the end of March.
Looks like it's Cquence, Rock Auto (Raybestos), or OEM.

i was going to install them before the show but i won't be able to break them in properly before the show...
after i try them out, i'll let you know my findings... i'm using the stock for the rears... which costs more than twice as much as the fronts do...

I've got a track weekend coming up on March 6th, so I'm keen on trying something else out before my current rotors are used up.
If I have to spend money I will, but if I can get decent rotors for a better price, I'll take them.

hmm these look good for the price and they have the OE cooling vane configuration too!
I am sure these rotors are harder than our original Brembo rotors so we're gonna have to use a harder aftermarket pad as well.
To be honest I'd stick with the OEM rotors and pads. There's a brand new set of rotors and pads right in front of me and they are legit Brembo quality parts. shipped from Europe with the Brembo instruction/pamphlet for the rotors and pads!
