Just wondering what brand of brake rotors you guys are using?

I have just ordered a set of ATE rotors for my car, they are pretty funny looking slotted with a star shape pattern. Not sure if they are any good, but I would think they can't be worse than generic rotors that you get from Autozone.

I can't justified myself spending 150 bucks for Brembo rotors, that's why I had to go to cheaper alternatives.

The other option I had was Power Slot, but that's about 100 a piece also. The ATE that I got was $50 each for the front and $75 for the rear. With some ATE racing blue fluid, that should be more than enough for my autox season.

Post your suggestions and experience please.

I buy the cheapest damn rotors I can find. When they break, I replace them with the cheapest damn rotors I can find.

RockAuto.com has Z32 rotors for around $63 shipped a pair. That's how I roll.

Car Parts Warehouse FTW.

I've been able to get Z32 rotors for as little as $17 and some change. :D

Yeah, most auto repair places can get really cheap rotors. My buddy has a shop and it was $15 a piece to get Z32 rears with the internal e-brake portion. It was actually less to get the fronts. I was thinking about getting some cheapo 350Z Track fronts and getting them cryo'd at a local shop for the hell of it.

I've been running the cheapest rotors I can find for the past 5 years now... I just replace them yearly typically.
