I see a lot of negative comments on here about PowerStop drilled & slotted rotors...But, I installed some drilled & slotted rotors on my 2002 Mustang GT...and what they did so for me was COMPLETELY eliminate any brake pedal/steering wheel pulsation/shudder caused by "warped" rotors...THAT alone made switching to drilled & slotted rotors worth it, to me.
Powerstops, they upgraded my braking performance at least by 3x, and they look really good too, I got the kit for my car with the drilled/slotted rotors, powder coated red calipers and ceramic heat resistant pads, they were a HUGE upgrade for sure.
Recently trying Bosch quiet cast though and have been pretty decent.
Also here in support of PowerStop. Been running the Z23 Kit on my BMW F30 for a few years. No complaints whatsoever and the drilled and slotted rotors look great! Highly recommend!
When I was told something similar, I went with Powerstop Z36 extreme tow at just over $600 for both front and rear rotors and pads. I did this at 42,000 im now at 115,000 and still good on same set. I use it as a truck and drive it like a sportscar.
I got my 2008 Acura RL calipers on my 00 TL and I used slotted rotors and Bose brake pads. They bite. So IMO I would get the PowerStop, a very good brand everyone loves.
I've had a set of PowerStop Z23 pads, rotors, and calipers, and I drive my card HARD and still doing just fine 30k miles later. Easily 40-50% left. I used to track my car, pre COVID, and that's about the only straight up abuse I've done. I also drive year round through the winter time. I've never had pads wear down faster because of the rotors being drilled/slotted!
I put on the slotted PowerStop rotors and have been very happy with them.
Eurocarparts sell Bosch front brake discs for £70 each = £140 and £43 for front brake pads, they probably don't use ECP but many suppliers will be in the same ball park so does sound expensive but it depends on the brand they used.
I also bought Power Stop Z23 Evolution Geomet Coated Rotors after I bought and installed Z23 pads. Desided I need to change the rotors after I installed the pads, oops. What bothered me about Power stop rotors is that the front rotors where NOT Notched (balanaced).
