Any particular type/brand of rotor prefered?

I need to change over 4 corners on 3 cars. :( The factory ones are useless!

Don't worry about a budget on brakes. Just don't go cheap, good quality stuff like DBA and you will be fine. Brakes are the most important thing on a car. Open your wallet when it comes down to it.

GSL Rallysport or Not An Abba Fan. I spent the extra and went DBA 4000 T3 slot front rotors and T2 slot rears. HPX brake pads. So much better.

NAAF just gave my VS an upgrade. RDA slotted rotors and performance pads all around for $380 fitted for a cheap but good upgrade

I would go the next step and fit a1rm pads instead of the hpx. have these fitted to my VR and they bite.

GSL told me that A1RM is good for track work but are much harsher on brake rotors then HPX. The HPX seem to be biting fine. Not An Abba Fan's brake package is good value also.
