Default Rotors

Hoping somebody can help me out......I'm looking to change my rotors to crossdrilled but I don't want the stock sized rotors in the front. I want bigger rotors in the front. I have a 2000 GS. Anybody know where I can buy bigger front rotors and what brand? Your input will be greatly appreciated.

It's not that simple. You cannot just buy larger rotors for your brakes and expect them to fit. You will need make a custom bracket that will extend your stock caliper to accommodate the oversized rotor. The best option is a BBK (big brake kit). Most people on this board usually go with the Supra or LS brake setup (~$500-1000). If you have a few grand to spend on some brake setups, look into brands, such as: Brembo, Endless, and of the like. Also, you will probably need bigger diameter wheels (if you don't have some already) and proper offsets that will clear the larger brake.
