while i agree on drilled rotors, i disagree on slotted rotors. they do offer a benefit of wiping the pads, which has been noted to make initial bite much more consistent. but it comes at the cost of additional dusting and lower pad life.

from a reliability standpoint, stainless steel lines are marginally better, as the stainless steel is containing some of the line pressure. again, this is a mod specifically done for more consistent brake feel.
