OK i'm also looking for Rotors don't know what to get if Drilled & Slotted or just Slotted ones or Drilled ones and what brand to?

I recommend...Just the Slotted Rotors.

And Progress Products are Awesome...I have Progress Springs & Rear SWay Bar.

I would recommend you just get a set of coilovers, even the progress ones(seen them for 6-700 new) and the cross drilled/slotted rotors and the energy suspension bushing kit and call it a day.

i agree wtih omar. with the money you spend on shocks and springs you can get a decent set of coilovers.

x3 with what omar said.

x4 and you should buy my coilovers

x4 on what omar said

OK a lot of people are telling me that the progress are the best next to TEIN and that the ride is smooth so i might go with that. I might don't know yet go with the set of Slotted rotors if not then ill do the stock ones. As for the bar i don't know what to pick if the

Progress Rear Sway Bar



or the Progress Anti-Roll Bar - Rear:



As for the coilovers ill think about it cause i'm getting a good prince from a friend on the struts springs and shocks so let see. I just want a nice stup thing that wont rub on the tires if it's low and that's why i don't know what to get.
I'm going to have 15" on the box the biggest i will do is 16" no higher than that.

Now My question to everyone here is is the HOTCHKIS kit any good or not?

I know for the Gen2... Hotchkis is the way to go but for gen1's im sure one of these guys can fill you in that.

you'll like the rear sway if you get it. I have a TRD rear sway and totally felt the difference when I didn't expect to.

um i hear hotchkis a little softer than the progress, so it depends on how much oversteer you want. dont buy just a new set of stock rotors, they are garbage and the first time you do any hard braking they will warp, go for just slotted, you can get drilled too, but not cross drilled, they do stop a little better, but they can crack. i personally atm have slotted and cross drilled and they have not cracked due to the weight of our cars, i dont think they can generate the heat to crack them, so its whatever lol. i would also get crhistians coils he's selling. but you better include some new rubber on the list too, becuase making your car stiff does nothing if your tires just slide on that asphalt lol.
