Just got these installed at AZP Installs tonight (along with stoptech ss lines, stoptec/axxis pads, and motul fluid) and I must say, these rotors ROCK.

Racingbrake.com Racing/Enduro Front Rotors.

Looks: Come on look at that bling!! :cool:

Initial Thoughts: Couldn't help but test them a few times the first night.

30-0 braking: almost threw my ****ing head into the windshield... just like I wanted! No noise or anything and the pedal feel is great too (probably due to the lines but whatever).

High speed braking: No more vibrating steering wheel. The braking is firm yet controlled and I feel MUCH safer now when braking promptly at high speeds.



But the real test will come when I finally sign up for my first HPDE... then we'll get a real review. Overall though, these rotors ROCK and are competitively priced too!

Painted Duplicolor "Graphite" and then brake dusted to all hell for that... Volk Bronze/Poop look :banana:

you have a 2003? I was wondering what is your brake pad setup for front and rear?

Stoptech fronts (03 app) + Axxis Ultimate rears (02 app). Car was manufactured in 07/02, and it's a 2003.

Got my racingbrake.com rotors (Racing / Enduro) and I finally got to try them out at the autox this past weekend. The install was a cinch, though http://www.azpinstalls.com has great pricing if you don't have the means to do it yourself. Just comparing the rotors side by side, you can see these are much beefier and just look and feel "stronger." I know it's a dumb comparison, but it is what it is.

They fit perfectly, and I ran them on 50% worn Hawk HPS pads. No squealing of any kind. I have (had prior to rotor install) goodridge stainless steel brake lines, but during the install, I decided it was time for a fluid flush and refill. Thus, with all components, my pedal feel was greatly improved, as was the ability to get the ABS to kick in sooner, which, leads me to believe my brakes are now "out-braking" the grip of my tires. They NEVER felt weaker throughout the 8 runs, nor on the ride home.

This was the first time ever that I could confidently admit that I never once thought about my brakes during the entire autox. Every time I needed them they were there, and every time they were there, they felt the same: CONSISTENCY! Which I think allowed my n00b ass to focus on some other skeelz during the event.

All in all, a great upgrade at a great price. AZP is an excellent vendor to deal with and I'd definitely recommend this upgrade to anybody who does some autox / hpde. Next HPDE is at Pocono Aug 28/29, so will report back then.

^^ I saw him yesterday in action and the car was definitely lookin' good

http://TeamIAC.com has been testing these rotors since Feb. They have so far been excellent and lived up to our full expectations. Both on Track and on Road they've held up well. The Street/HPDE ones black coating on the non-contact surfaces has survived a winter here in the NE without fail. On my Legacy Turbo we've done 7 track days and 10K street miles on HP+ pads and haven't even put a lip in them! AZP has provided them for us and we've been very happy with them so far. I believe they have more details in their Vendor-for-sale post as well.

UPDATE:: I got a deal on STI Brembos so AZP chucked those on. And I said hey, I love these rotors so much I might as well get the STI sized racing/enduro rotors. So here they are... the stopping force is powerful, to say the least:
