Upgrade to sport brakes, they (even with base rotors will give more stopping power) if that's REALLY not doable, anything slotted or drilled would be better, try Z1's

Get that physics the **** out of here, huh? Lol.

If you can drive a car and tell me whether it's running solid, drilled, slotted, J-hook or any other kind of rotors by feel alone, you're a better man than I.

LOL!

I tell you that on my Toyota Avalon, the braking distance was reduced greatly, same pads, but granted, new rotors
It was on a 60-0 stop, friend was in the car, and it was a HUGE improvement, we were both surprised. Then again, maybe it was other factors? (God knows there are a lot)

Exactly. Maybe it was the brakes. Maybe it was something else. On a one stop situation, the presence of slots/holes or lack thereof will not have a noticable effect.

On the flip side, drilled and slotted rotors look ******* fantastic.

Oh, 2pc rotors are a whole different ball game. That's not a placebo effect. They are lighter, and that makes the car happy. I was just talking about one piece rotors. You went with the baller rotors.
