Stoptech Cryo or not
I just changed my rotor less then a year and now is warped. I read about this Stoptech rotor, will the cryo one going to warp like a year or so or it will last a long time.
Any other rotors I can look into thats slotted?

Cryo rotors are known to be a more durable, more robust rotor. They can take a lot of abuse and would be a little less prone to warping.
If you are hard on brakes, they would be a good choice.

Something is not right if you're already having issues after 1 year. Do you drive the car hard? Something tells me the brake pads were not bedded-in properly when they were first installed. Majority of the time, rotors do not warp. Pad material gets transferred unevenly onto the rotor is what causes your vibration.
Cryo rotors are great if you track your car. People go with cryo rotors for longevity, but it doesn't fix your problem if it's related to uneven deposit of the pad.

I am a hard braker. Only this rotor I got before was a generic I let the mechanic decided. I changed together with a new set of Duralast ceramic brake pads and will do the same too when this rotor changes. Hopefullya better rotor will last long.
I have been driving with the OEM without any problems until I upgraded to this LS400 rotor.

Ah so you're running LS400 front brakes now. I have the same setup on my GS400 for 3 years and not a single problem. I personally think its the break-in process or your pad selection that's the problem. I'm running generic LS400 rotors and they still have plenty of life in them, even with repeatedly hard stops.
