Brake Rotors??

[DrtySthV6SE]

One of my Christmas presents will be new front brake rotors. I was looking at Brembo Drilled Rotors, but i dont like the gold color. I would rather have silver to match the wheels and calipers. What do you guys recommend.
I would like drilled if not both slotted and drilled.

I like slotted more than drilled. Because drilled cracks alot easier... I dont think it going to matter what color you have them because its going to wear off because of the excessive heat the rotors go thru , everytime you step on the brake pedal.

If you want better brakes performance... I suggest swapping in the dual piston front calipers from the 1995 V6 camry (retail is $292.34 not including shipping at www.discbrakesrus.com) and do the Brembo rotors (I can get these for a discounted price ... give me a email) and get the GoodRigde or Porter Field ( I like these better) brake lines and use motul dot3 or dot4 brake fluid ( I can get these at a discounted price also) and use some PorterField brake pads ( I have a buddy over at Porter Field also)...

Hope this answers some of your questions...

Wait i do have a 95 V6 Camry so do i have dual piston front calipers??
I wasn't really looking for stopping power to stop my turboed camry I just wanted some good rotors that might reduce squeaking and replace mine which have 118000 miles on them.
So the gold color of the brembo rotors will wear off and become silver, cause i dont want to have gold fronts and silver rears :roll:, my rears dont need changing.
I will contact you if my parents and i decide to get the Brembos, which i probably will and i use NAPA Brake Pads since they have a lifetime warrenty and i get them free when they wear out

i had a 94 v6 and i have the PowerStop cross-drilled rotors. They are really Brembo but cheaper, it says "Brembo" on the discs if u look closely. Anyway, these things are great
they improved my braking, almost too sensitive to the touch. One friend of mine drove the car and he couldn't brake smoothly. it was too sensitive, just a little pressure on the pedal and passenger heard went dipping. I would recommend this to anyone who need more braking power

Some annoying thing though:
1 .It still squeaks and has a whirring sound under hard braking, i liked the whir but no the squeaks
2. In cold weather, I thinks you need to warm it up before it became useful. If you start up the car and go in cold weather. Then it feels like almost no braking at all. After a few brakes and goes, it performs perfectly.

First of all not trying to be an ass or anything, i work at meineke myself, this car has duals, 2.25 all the way back, 2 ractive mufflers spread out wide, they are the single oval DTM turn ups so they hug the bumper, so i mean i'm sure you and me arent the only duals on gen 3s out there, some guys on TeamSc3 got it i'm sure.
Anyway if you want your rotors coated silver and it wont wear off around where the brake pad does not hit it which i still think looks good, look for KVR performance Rotors and you can get them Coated Silver Black oR gold for xtra 15 bucks a piece, as for Napa brake Pads make sure you get the gold line with shims the other crap will never stop squicking, or actually make that extra step and get Ceramic pads (no noise,no black brake dust,its going to be white so you wont see it, and it will stop better) by the way camrys have problems with squicky brakes....i'm sure people on here that are reading this post agree.

wait so you have duals to, my bust. I really thought i was the only camry, especially on this site, since everyone wanted to see the duals so bad i thought no one else had them. :roll:

Trying to put together a groupbuy for Solara Front disc brake upgrade. The kit would include everything you need to install it. You would
get rotors, calipers, mounting brackets, pads, stainless steel hoses, all
the fittings, and instructions. There are a few different brands of rotors
that we use, depending on wheel size. We use Wilwood calipers, there are
various pad compounds to choose from, but it typically comes with Wilwood Polymatrix 'D' pads (their street compound), or Hawk HPS pads (high performance street). We make custom brackets for the kits, and include Goodridge stainless steel hoses. If we can get 20 or more the kits would be like 20% off. If interested please email me at josephsantos@comcast.net

Thekits would be coming from precicion brakes company. This is a great deal if you ever considered the brembo big brake conversion kit that is going for about $1800+. Email me for pricing and more info or any questions. I would like to see this group buy happen. Thanks!
