Good replacement for OEM Y2K front rotors?
Is there a good, reliable replacement for front stock rotors for Y2K maxima? Just the regular ones, NOT cross-drilled...
If yes, suggest where I can buy them without spending too much.

Thanks.

So, Brembo is the way to go?
Is anybody actually running on them? Are they better than OEM?

Thanks.

Yeah. Lots of people are running them. Stillen cross-drilled rotors use Brembo blanks.

hey dude...in your opinion...do you think Brembo blanks are better than OEM Maxima rotors? (in so far as stopping power, less fade, warping, etc..)

I can't answer that question, NT2SHBBY. I haven't installed my Brembos yet.

I guess, I'd have to wait for e few months until somebody gets a real experience with Brembo....

pads will make a much bigger difference compared to just replacing rotors. i am running Brembo blanks with Porterfield pads and what a difference compared to OEM set-up.

How much noise are you generating with the Porterfield's, dennisuello?
