seems a little pricey. Isn't this the same thing?gary_g said:Anyone have a cobra brake conversion kit from discbrakesrus.com? I was thinking about getting the full front and back conversion with 13" slotted/drilled rotors they have for $1092... Seemed like a pretty good deal... It even came with stainless braided brake lines.
Anyone have a kit from there? Or anything else in the price range that you would recommend?

Do we need to continue to poke fun at my rusty ass rotors???B C said:Rusty ones.
Those definitely are not Powerslots.
Powerslots are nickel plated and will not rust.
01BlkGT said:Just be forewarned, if you have crappy wheels that you dont care about, then put those on before you try out the brakes. The paint off the rotors (cause they paint the WHOLE rotor) will splat and paste itself off all over the rim inside and out. Also, if u have crappy pads you dont care about then use those to scrape off the paint unless you want to take off the pads in a few days to clean off all the junk paint that has burned itself onto the pad and in between the cracks. These are the things they dont tell you when your order that option (and I'd rather not say how I know all this). Also, its going to take quite a few miles for the paint to completely wipe off the rotor (b/c you dont want to slam on the brakes as b/c the rotors are seasoned nor the pads). Truthfully, I wish I'd had just gotten the powerslot rotors (not for the looks, but for the anti-rusting) and not messed with the powder-coated crap.
