quick question guys... I've done the search but just had a few additional questions for those who already have the kit.

From what I've read, seems like most people are pretty satisfied with the R1 Concepts Preminium rotors to accompany their Ericsol's brake kit.

I've had my kit since they first came out and I love the way they look. I actually still have the original slotted and drilled rotors that came with the extension kit. My problem was that the section of the rotor that the stock calipers don't touch gets very rusted and it doesn't look too great. I ended up powder coating that area as well as the middle section. I'm looking for a new set of Supra TT front rotors but I wanted some advice from people whom have purchased his kit more recently or the similar kit I've seen on the forum. I don't feel like going through the trouble of powder coating again.

Which brand of rotors did you use, and how do they stand up to rust (especially that area that the pads don't touch). It would also be great if you could let me know where they were purchased.

THANKS!

basically speaking...any rotor will do- I went with ebay rotors, personally. just make sure that you either get the zinc coated ones, or pay for the coat
