EBC or DBA?

[m0nkeyprince]

right now, ive already decided on ebc greenstuff 7000's but for the rotors, im still debating.

DBA 4000, with "kangaroo paw" cooling, the 6x6 wiper design http://dba.com.au/4000-series

or

EBC USR http://www.ebcbrakes.com/automotive/spo ... tors.shtml

anybody used these rotors before?

i had the ebc slotted dimpled rotors with green stuff pads, they bite real nice not a lot of fade, i did notice that the rotors needed to be resurfaced after about 10,000 miles of really hard use.

oh nice, i was gonna go with the one with dimples, but i didnt want to pay extra for the dimples that dont do much i think. did you have the gold anodized finish? woah 10,000 is a really short time, do you think its the rotor or the pads?

I currently have the EBC Sport Slotted Rotors and previously had the DBA 629S L/R's. Here's a pic of the EBC's and the DBA's.

I would have stuck with the DBA's if I didn't get the EBC's for free. Also I'm using YellowStuff pads which only last about 16K miles. If you want to get the DBA's let me know I'll give you a good place to buy them through.

I have EBC slotted and dimpled , im pretty sure they were the gold anodized finish and its been about 2.5 -3 years since i put them on, and they are working perfectly.

o cool, after 3 years, you didnt have a problem with the hats or the rotos vanes rusting?

[miamiheat3332]

there is a tiny coat of rust all around the rotor but you get that on mostly all rotors, other than that they work fine. I painted my calipers red this past week i still have to throw up some pics for you guys.
