and heres the left one notice the holes not drilled like its (like they guessed the pattern) like the right one (i know they are directional) and i guess you could say the heat vents inside the rotor are straight unlike the curved right one

i have already exchanged for another rotor but they sent the same thing so heres the question should i just return both get my money back and purchase some brembos or keep them?:shrug:

These are roto tech rotors.

stupid juggs. I actually screwed up with the name. JP is from Marcor, a company out of Hamilton, Ontario. Roto-Tech is actually a company out of missisauga, Ontario...and they supply companies like Summit, Jegs, Marcor, etc.

Might want to give a call to roto-tech to ask about this problem. To me it seems like it has the potential to be a severe safety issue if it was caused by poor/inaccurate cross drilling. If I were roto-tech, I would want to know about this.

For reference, I got my left side rotor from summit on their close-out sale...~45.00 for the rotor (crazy good deal). I then had to go to Marcor (the local company to me) to get the right side (~$85 not as good a deal). there was a slight difference between them with regard to the lip before the surface that the caliper makes contact with (it was grainy like the ones in your pictures, while the summit one was smoother)

Personally I'd also like to know why summit discontinued these rotors. They were labelling them as 'Summit Extreme Performance Rotors'
