Like I said before, I've logged plenty of track miles with the BRZ on demanding tracks (including Zolder) and the best value for money setup is IMHO excellent pads on standard rotors.

In my case, Carbotech XP10 pads and OEM rotors work wonders. With some extra cooling from the now well-knwon Porsche brake spoilers.

Not only are grooved or drilled rotors a marketing gimmick with no efficacy whatsoever, but they are pads killers too. In the spirit of bang for bucks, you're better off replacing standard rotors twice as often than throwing money at high end fancy rotors.

Just my $0.02.
