I don't think cross-drilled are for looks. I think that cold air inter the vent in between the disk,and hot air exits the disk throe the holes. and i also think it's good for wet weather. their lighter too.

cross-drilled also have their down side. they crack.

I don't really want to turn this into a debate. but i searched and found this nice write up Cross Drilled VS Slotted Rotors

Thanks Steven! Now if I can work out the fuel starvation issue I've been having at the track recently, will be ready to rock!
If a respectable company like Stillen,and AP Racing work on a break kit. "exclusive for the 370z". Why did you have to do modification to correctly fit the break system? Or are they just off the shelf parts that they put together?
