Also running Stoptech street pads, SS lines, MC brace and RBF fluid. Night and day over OE responsiveness, feel and thermal capacity. Very little dust.

Ebc has some. That's what I was planning to get, just wasn't sure it really makes a difference. I was more concerned about the weight of the rotors more than braking performance. After some reading on other forums it doesn't make as big of a difference as I thought.

If you go the high carbon route either post here or make a new thread as to your thoughts. I haven't seen anyone other than myself using them but it's been a great improvement for the street and is economic. I didn't buy EBC's and the one's I am using are black coated everywhere but the fire ring so no more ugly rust look.
