I want to upgrade my front brakes this winter. I have an 89 fox body with an sn95 front conversion. I want to get a pair of rotors and pads not a big brake kit. Any one have any suggestions? Looking for some rotors that are slotted and cross drilled. Something that looks good and works good too.

Just to clarify---you already have SN95 front brakes and just want some quality rotors/pads?

go to pep girls or buy hawk pads. rotors are rotors. I dont like the drilled and slotted they always seem to warp on me. I guess I brake to hard for my little brakes.

i agree on the hawks pads, they are a pretty good choice for a street driver, they stop my car from 140mph jolts!! and they dont destroy the rotors like some pads do..

Haha they look nice and don't heat up as much but they warp fast. IMO.

i have a set spindles and pbr dual piston calipers from a 99 GT if you're lookin'... just need cleaned up a bit. also "new" takeoff struts that you'll need for the swap too.
