brembo doesn't make drilled rotors....thats just cheapo ebay immitation......and highly unsafe
cause they were blanks that some company drilled on their own and structurly unsound |

Got the Raybestos drilled and slotted ones. It had a Celica on the box, so I figured I had to.
 http://www.raybestos.com/usa/rotors.htm They were pretty cheap, special ordered from Kragen. Got the composite pads of the same brand/series. --------------------  |
