Looks great!

We got rears:







5 lbs lighter then stock. Retains full function of e-brake, it will require some modification for you stock pads but we have an answer for that too!

So I pay estimated $800-$1,000 and I get a set of 2 rotors? Or is that estimate from above per rotor or all 4 etc...?

Also, when you say for sale shortly, when did you have in mind?

It would be around 750 for the front pair, and 800 for the rear pair. We do offer replacement rotors as well but you can get a lot of track/driving time out of these.

Replacement rotors also come with hardware but very seldom have we had customers who needed replacement rotors, except for BlackTrack

Those rotors are very nice looking, 2 piece cnc'd. But, $1500.00 for 4 rotors? No pads, etc. That's not a good deal.

I agree...especially when compared to these rotors:

http://www.scienceofspeed.com/produc...tional_rotors/

Those rotors in that link look much more capable and are cheaper.

Those are S2000 rotors and S2000 prices. Much smaller rotor. Stop pooping on his parade. It isn't the same thing.

Yes, those rotors are for S2000s, but I wouldn't say they are much smaller. Specs aren't given but since I own both cars I can tell you first hand that the Evo front rotors aren't that much bigger than S2000 front rotors. Anyways, more importantly I am referring to the quality of the rotor itself, and it is my opinion that the rotor that Science of Speed is selling is more capable that what Girodisc is selling.
