EBC rotors?
Has anyone installed the EBC slotted rotors?

I'm trying to decide EBC slotted or DBA 4000 (costs about $160 more for all 4 corners).

Any inputs or opinions welcome. Thanks!

i have the ebc slotted/dimple rotors with Ferodo 2500 pads on my 05 MR for more than a year. Stop great better than stock, not too noisy, last good... basically that is it.

Its really the change in pads that improved stopping distance. Slotted, typically (aka local shops) cannot be turned.

that's right! I have been using the Ferrodo (or Fedorro I forgot) pads since 2004 for my evos and love them. They're good for accasional tracks too. The EBC rotors are good, so far I don't have anything bad about them.

I'm just wondering for the street, if spending about $200 (EBC on sale now @ EBay @ $393 for all 4) more for DBA compared to EBC is worth the price.
Anyone else use the EBC slotted?
