Ive had powerslot rotors on my car for now 2 years only on the front and have had a good experience with them. I have not added the braided lines but I have accompanied them with Hawk brake pads and have had good luck all around. Good choice on mods. Have fun doing the install.

I have powerslot rotors also with aem nissin brake pads. They were a big improvement over my stock warpped rotors. They stop real easily now. I have been very happy with them and I have heard that they are stronger then crossed drilled rotors

rotors

I havent personally expierenced with them, but my cousin has
slotted/cross drilled rotors on his SiR hatch. Those were a BIG improvement over stock and i think the slotted/cross drilled combination together work better.

I'm gonna try and photograph the whole install, shocks/coilovers, rotors, brake pads, brake lines. My digital camera sucks so i'll have to make sure there's plenty of light.

What do you guys think about the Brembo crossdrilled/slotted rotors? I am sending my powerstops back (got the wrong one's on accident ) and am going to probably order the Brembo's

I have them here sitting waiting for installation on my Type R. from what I hear they are supposed to be at the very least as strong as Brembo but cheaper in price.

A buddy of mine knows the guy that owns Powerslot and told me to try them out. I have sworn by Brembo for many years since I have used the same set of rotors for 3.75 years which includes about 30 track days and about 1000 times on the Drag Strip without warpage.

Let's see how these powerslots will hold up to my abuse.
