My slotted rotors make a little more noise at higher speeds when braking.

ok, so i go and get the girls from school today. as i'm waiting, i see a guy walking around my car. we start talking, and the guy asks me if the spoiler was real carbon fiber or that fake stuff.....WTF?!?!? he said he just bought a g35 with some work done to it, that the previous owner sold because he was smoked by an evo. then after that, i see a grandma walking out with her grand daughter looking at a old dodge challenger that was sitting there, saying how that was a real car. but when the lil girl said something about my car, the grandma said, 'it's not the looks, it's what's under the hood' what a day

I'm glad it's not just me. My stock set lasted about a year+ and I think I feel a very slight slight pulse in my brembo slotted. They should last a long time yet but WTF.

My stockers last 73k... I got you all beat.. They were kinda warped though.

We'll see what I can do to these ones..

I wasn't trying to say that the whirring noise was a problem, I actually expected there to be more noise than stock.

Good afternoon everyone. Great weather out there today. wow.

I just pulled through the Oscars drive-through to get some custard. On the way through the parking lot there were some HS kids standing around a truck. I had to drive right by them (a few feet away) and I could "feel" all 5 of them just stare me down. lol

I think they would have normally said something but since I’m older they were not sure what to say.

It's sort of wierd because my personality is more geared for a clean/low profile vehicle. Frankly could have gone for something without a big wing! lol
