I am going to change my rotors but i'm debating on going with drill slot or slotted rotors...I remember seeing something about this before on here but don't remember what it was under....

 

slotted.

 

Slotted. Drilled rotors are not a good idea on a small sized rotor because they can heat up around the slots and crack. Slotted are more than enough even if you plan on doing some autocrossing/track days.

 

slotted. they make a cool whoosh noise too when your breaking

 

This is sooooo funny, I had to post it somwhere... http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Mitsu...spagenameZWDVW
I think I'm going with the Z-rated!

LOL!!!

 

are patterns like that even effective? wtf?

 

^Eh, no.

 

and some idiot is going to get it just b/c it has a "z" on the rotor... smh

 

Thats funny. if I saw someone with some of those rotor styles I would laugh.

go with slotted. cross drilled isnt really needed and you risk cracking which has allready been mentioned.

 

tirerack has a pretty good deal on the brembo slotted rotors, btw--that's where i got mine.

 

had drilled and slotted on this car apparently for over a year. (second owner)

No cracks. Goodbraking!

 

Yea slotted is the way to go. Theres no difference between them but slotted looks better if anything

 

I wanna get me some of dem der Z-rated ones! lol, jk.

On a side note, is what is the best value for getting rotors? Brembo?

Sorry if this is off topic, i just didnt wanna make a whole tread dedicated to that question.

 

Brembo is just one of the top known brands and is used on many high performance cars. The Evo comes stock with them. Get slotted or drilled or both. It's whichever you think looks cooler. My friend has drilled and slotted on his lancer and has had them since I met him 2 years ago. No cracks or problems ever. And they look cool. I doubt you will ever crap or warp a rotor (as long as its not a cheap off brand rotor) in a lancer. The guy I know just went turbo, we'll see if they crack then.

 

^I second that! Had my slotted & drilled and never ever had any hint of a crack. Actually went through 2 sets of pads on those same rotors. Brembos FTW!
