Sick setup man! Looks really good....... I remember reading that you said when you put new pads on that you need to rough up the rotors or something along that line. What/how do you do that?

I used the same type V6 rotors at Sebring to try them out and they held up really well! The zinc coating got kinda cooked but they took the heat OK.

I got the fronts from a guy on fleabay. For the rears, I'm doing the swap for the my V6 calipers with Gearhead Customs (he has a thread in the "brake and suspension" section). It took almost 3 weeks to get them but all I have to pay is shipping and a little prorated wear on the pads ($25) so, like $80 total for the rears.
