I would highly doubt that the Z/28 rotors and pads are going to be much cheaper.

as for a carbon ceramic matrix rotors and pads serve no purpose on the track,that is completely wrong.this setup works by heat.the more,usually,the better.if you can't get them to work on the track,then you aren't driving hard enough.another way of looking at it is,every team in formula 1 uses cabon/carbon setups for a reason....they flat out work( in the dry) the best for what the rules state.

MotoGP uses them as well,but will switch them out in bad weather,because you can't keep heat in them in the rain.thier use in other series would be more wide spread if the cost came down.
Are your prices from a local dealer? Online parts sites charge much, MUCH less than dealer.

zr1 front rotor PN 25843121
zr1 rear rotor PN 25843128

'GM parts direct' price $1222.34 ea

And I wouldn't doubt that you could find them for even cheaper than that.
