I'm sick of the crap rotors (warped again) in my EL so its time for some decent ones, How much should I expect to pay for a pair of DBA Slotted front rotors?

I pais $240.00 for a pair of DBA cross drilled & slotted from Repco Maroochydore.

Found them to make a huge difference in combination with Green stuff pads.

Cross drilled are not the best option if your heavy braking. They tend to be weaker and crack around the holes. Slotted are stronger. Also get some EBC Greenstuff pads to go with the slotted rotors.

ABS brakes did mine, a good job too, they like to use lucas pads. I have had no problems with them although they make a little dust.

I bought a pair of dba slotted for $195 "trade price" and im running ebc black stuff as the green stuff tend to be a little harsh for street use but the best part was throwing a full set of braided lines on the AU and damn does the car stop now highly recomended.
