Hi, I am looking at getting new rotors (and possibly other parts to replace my aging brake setup). Everyone i asked told me to get brembos that are slotted & cross drilled for my 4 lug set up right now. my questions:

1. Where should i buy it from?2. Does it matter if its for ABS or non-abs? 2a. If it does, how do i check if my car has abs? (it is a 94 s13 convertible)3. What else should i get? I'm not looking on improving my braking performance, I just want to FIX my brakes because my car is 13 years old...

thanks guys

1.) Check out NICO sponsors!2.) ABS and NON-ABS are different size rotors. ABS are slightly larger. 2a.) Your car has NON-ABS rears and ABS fronts. (Due to the heavier curb weight of the 'vert, they put the slightly larger ABS brakes on the front)3.) Honestly.. in my opinion.. don't buy Brembos... your just paying for brand name. Get a set of stock rotors from autozone or something.. then spend some extra cash on a nice set of brake pads.. Green Stuff or something high end.

Brembos are cheaper than most other brands... less than $30 each for S13 w/ ABS.

Crappy rotors and high performance pads = warped rotors.
