The front rotors are not the same on the ABS cars. They (Powerslot) only make rotors for the ABS fitment :( . The rear rotors are all the same. On the Hawk pads I would look at the HPS Street pads. The HP is designed for track use and need to get up to a higher temp to bite. That is not too fun when you try to stop at the end of your driveway in November:eek: They work great for track and autocross but don't work well on the street.

Another option would be the EBC Sport Brake rotors. They make a fitment for your car. Not my first pick since the slots are a lot wider and they have the dimples, but still better than stock.
