Im looking to upgrade my rotors and pads for this upcoming season seeing that the rotors that came with the car are warped and if I plan on driving the car in HPDE's this year, I would prefer to have brakes that I know and trust.

My current philosophy is to get some Centric 1 pieces (or 2 pieces if i can find the price) from MAP because pads usually chew through rotors and I dont want to buy some fancy rotors (although that would be nice ) just to pay a couple hundred bucks every time I need new rotors. I have seen that Centric has a good material and a bad material, where could I find pricing for the good material rotors (or ill buy the ones that MAP has) and some girodisc (S/S) pads for the time being, I will probably go raysbestos for track pads, but the season is over for me this year.

 

Centric premiums are the ones you want. I've been using them for years on track and they are a great cost/performance item.

The front solids you can get for $120ish a pair on Amazon.

Front:
125.46064 Centric Premium High Carbon Rotor (Solid)
126.46064 Centric Premium High Carbon Rotor (Slotted) - Add L or R in part number for sides
127.46064 Centric Premium High Carbon Rotor (Drilled & Slotted) - Add L or R in part number for sides
128.46064 Centric Premium High Carbon Rotor (Drilled) - Add L or R in part number for sides
121.46064 Centric C-Tek Standard Rotor (Solid)

Rear:
125.46065 Centric Premium High Carbon Rotor (Solid)
126.46065 Centric Premium High Carbon Rotor (Slotted) - Add L or R in part number for sides
127.46065 Centric Premium High Carbon Rotor (Drilled & Slotted) - Add L or R in part number for sides
128.46065 Centric Premium High Carbon Rotor (Drilled) - Add L or R in part number for sides
121.46065 Centric C-Tek Standard Rotor (Solid)

 

Raybestos ST43's are very easy on the rotors, as long as they are only used at the track. If you use them on the street (a lot, like daily driving) where they don't get up to temp, they will chew the rotors up.


I use these one piece directional vane rotors from Racing Brake.

This is super useful, I will be saving this somewhere! thanks for the help!

 

I've used Centric high carbons on more than a couple of my cars and have never had any issue with them. They're pretty hard to beat performance/dollar wise.
