2010 Lancer Ralliart

Trying to upgrade just my front rotors. and all pads

They are warped and start to fade almost immediately going downhill, or when slowing down from 60-80, won't go faster because of this issue. i will also change fluid, i know that can be part of the problem

I'm trying to buy a kit (pads,rotors)

The options for the 2 kits I have seen are:

-DE
-ES
-Evolution
-Evolution (with 1 piece front rotors)
-GTS (with rear disc brakes)

i assume the GTS would be the most likely option but i would greatly appreciate some extra opinions or knowledge

The evo pads/rotors won't fit as they're much larger then the oem ralliart's. IIRC, the gts rear rotor/pads are the same as the ralliart's so they should fit, but the ralliart uses a 2 piston caliper instead of the 1 piston the gts uses so the pads and rotor are different sizes.

I'd personally recommend looking into one of ebc's brake kits, you can pick up their stage 5 kits front and back for about $250 each which includes slotted/dimpled rotors and their Yellowstuff pads, the rotors combined with a good dot 4 brake fluid will definitely help with the brake fade you're having as well as a decent increase in braking power. I've been running these brakes for about 5k km now and I haven't had any fade/warping issues hard braking from 200km/h+.

I run the Powerslot rotors with Hawk Greeenstuff (DD - not tracked).

You must use 'Ralliart" front rotors/pads(unless you are gong BBK w/new calipers too.

Thank you both very much.

Go AP Racing & Brembo or go home.

I'm running Centrics "middle tier" rotors all around. They are about 40-50 each rotor.
Currently, running Hawk Pads, which i'm about to switch to Akebono's. 50 bucks a set (front set and rear set).

Shop around. I usually pull the part number off something like Lancershop. Then, google it.
I did not do my brake fluid. I will do it on my next rotor change. Which is most likely after 100k miles.

I run R1 Concepts Premier Series drilled/slotted rotors with their ceramic pads. They are always giving discounts. I couldn't be happier and they look really good.

Don't go with EBC. Their pads and discs are sh**. Tested on several Lancers with or w/o RA brakes.

...and if you go Centric/slotted - I have a set of matching rear rotors NIB going up for sale soon.
