I have a pair of front rotors from them on my car right now and they are working fine. Although, one of the pads I got from them was missing the tiny hole where the pad springs would fit into. I just ended up using one of the springs. I would double check this if you are getting pads as well.

I have them on my GS, and haven't had any issues. The only thing I was a little dissapointed with was that the powdercoating didn't last very long. I was showing signs of rust within a matter of weeks. This may be the case with all powdercoated rotors, but this was my first set. I did paint them and clear coat them and they've held up very well.

cheaper??? got link? im prolly going to get this set of 4 rotor n pads today tho.. since my car NEEDS brakes haha.
so.. $205 (org price + tax) for... 4 D/S rotors ( 2 F + 2 R ) + Brake pads for all 4 corners (semi metallic)
on top of that warentee too.. for cracking.. which is good cuz i heard drilled brakes tend to crack often so.. =p
but yea. link to cheaper slotted brembos wouldnt hurt for other peeps that want new rotors..
Greed777: what type of paint + clear did u use? i heard 88 uses high temp paint on their rotors on Honda-tech forum...but then again i got a response from them saying they power coat it...

I used black brake caliper paint by VHT and Dupli-Colors engine enamel for the clear. It has held up very well. I was told that they were powder coated as well, it just didn't hold up very long.

I recommend it, I have alway used it. Alot of rotors and calipers that I have seen that don't use it tend to wear and fade rather quickly. I have never had to re-paint mine and they still look brand new and freshly painted.
