We just track tested these. Stop tech is out of stock of one of the brake line fittings. They're sweet though.

Past few years I have had tons of issues with stoptech and warping/vibrating rotors and had to had several RMA's to them, every since they got bought by centric parts I think their quality has gone down.

what is the difference between these rotors and the stock ones? just the slotting? or is vein design different? Seems kind of pointless to me to change the rotors unless they weigh a lot less or there is some other factor? Stock brakes work great with the proper pad on the track. I will be upgrading mine, but I'm almost more interested in the weight loss provided by the likes of the Essex kit than I am by the better pedal feel.

That is really about it, there street up is pretty rough when it comes to everyday driving and their rotors vibrated a lot (this was confirmed) so they sent me another pair which reduced vibration by about 80% but still some left over. I guess because its aftermarket. This was a few months after Centric took over but anyways I am not sure I would recommend them to most folks.
