Brake discs DBA or Raybestos
For rotors, you’re lighting money on fire if you get anything other than a set of non coated blanks. You aren’t going fast enough, or running long enough sessions to get them so hot that you need drilled and slotted in an attempt to drop every degree you can off the heat sinks, especially if you aren’t pushing for the full session. A quick browse on RockAuto shows that the cheapest drilled and slotted is just under x3 the price of a Raybestos blank. You can warp a set every weekend and still be way ahead (I promise you won’t warp a set every weekend unless you’re abusing the brakes).
Pros: cost-effective, durable for normal use
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Golf
Raysbestos Street Performance rotors are excellent. They are high-carbon and better able to manage heat and resist warping and cracking than ordinary grey iron rotors.
Pros: high-carbon, manage heat, resist warping
you can get some solid 1 piece DBA rotors for less, and they'll be phenomenal.
Pros: phenomenal performance, solid quality

I'm running Raybestos R300 slotted rotors and Powerstop Z23 pads on my 4/2 Brembos, from Rockauto. No complaints or squeals. Holds up really well with repeated heavy braking in the twistys too.
Pros: No squeals, holds up well

I have personally used Raybestos Element 3 from rock auto and they are amazing and rust resistant
Pros: amazing, rust resistant
I used Raybestos rotors this last time, and they are OK, but they have a little vibration to them.
Pros: are OK
Cons: little vibration
I got those Raybestos Element 3 rotors and they immediately warped. I didn't bother buying anything else, but just had them turned and they are good enough now.
Cons: immediately warped
