    I buy the cheapest rotors I can get. PFC08 fronts, PFC01 rears. 8 race weekends with my SE30 this season and JUST replaced the rotors. No issues or excessive wear. I will point out that I run brake cooling in the front.

      I heard that you can use Corrado rotors as a cheap upgrade for larger rotors, is this true?

          You'll need calipers and pads, too, right?

            corrado rotors with rx7 calipers is what i think your talking about.
            and thats only for the front. ive been thinking about this but its not worth it for me yet
            m20 is plenty. im simply a drifter.

              What he said! Good to great pads and stock rotors are all that are required unless you just what big rotors for the sake of them.

                The best deal around is the BBK Ksport in AZ puts out. I used it in for a 9 hour test session at the Cal Speedway Chump Car race & the 25hrs of Thuderhill and never changed the pads. Not only that, I still have a good amount of pad material left. Awesome brakes for the money.
