blueviol Posted June 16, 2004 Share Posted June 16, 2004 Hi, I cannot still determine whether I should get slotted or cross drilled rotors for my SC400. Or should I get slotted and cross drilled? The following is my knowledge as far as rotors go: slotted: Pros-good for keeping the rotor surface clean Cons-shaves the pad surface cross-drilled: pros:good for heat dissipation cons: easily cracks Now, what shall I go for? Any recommendation on pads? Thanks. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

big400lexus Posted June 16, 2004 Share Posted June 16, 2004 I have slotted and cross drilled on my gs and love them I havent had any problems with pad life being shortened or cracking I dont even know what that is.Get them both they look sweet .Also if you have rims where your gonna see the hubs get them coated so they dont rust iy is worth it .Dont chince on the pads.

alexR Posted June 16, 2004 Share Posted June 16, 2004 Theres nothing cleaner then a big ol' set of shiny cross-drilled/slotted rotors. one of the cleanest mods IMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jzz30 Posted June 16, 2004 Share Posted June 16, 2004 that thing about the drilled rotors cracking doesnt happen unless you heat them up alot like in a race application Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueviol Posted June 16, 2004 Author Share Posted June 16, 2004 icic... ^^ Thanks all for your feedback. About the coating (cadmium), does it fade over time as the rotor wears? I also thought that the cross-drilled should not (especially when it's a Brembo) crack unless severe stress. Myself not being a street racer, I guess it should be okay to go with slotted/cross-drilled. Is Axxis pad good? They have the EBC greenstuff that has some performance aspect. Do anyone have any opinion? Thanks~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
