Nissan replaced mine twice already and resurfaced the rotors under warranty. Crappy squeaky factory brakes ftw

My brakes are squeeeking again after getting the rotors resurfaced a year ago. I want to get slotted/drilled or whatever it is that stillen has. A bit pricey though, anyone knw of another company that makes rotors like that?

Rmuth25, my stock rotors are shot as well. I wound up getting the Rotora drilled/slotted rotors from http://www.horsepowerfreaks.com. I think they might have wound up being slightly less expensive than the Stillen rotors but not by much. If you wind up going the same route I did, they ship slow but it was one of the only places I could find that stocked them.

Yep, it always happened when i first started the car. 3 trips, 2 sets of brake pads and resurfaced rotors later it stopped. I have about 1000 miles on all 4 pads :D
