Definitely going with the lines and fluid. Thinking about rotors and pads too....

Questions: Do you know (for the Sport model) the weight difference between the stock, the slotted replacements you offer, and perhaps even the 2-piece (if you're making one that's slotted but not drilled?). I assume the point of the 2-piece is to drop more weight.

Also, I've been looking for a good streetable pad. I may occasionally do some light track events, but if I ever do more I can always get a different set of pads for the track... So I'm thinking about either those HPS's or the Ceramic ones from the ones on your site. They both look street-friendly (not as bad as a track pad on dust/noise/ rotor wear) from the descriptions. Is the Ceramic better all around, or is there some drawback compared to the HPS? Like, do they need more warmup to get full effectiveness, or are they more difficult to bed correctly?

Front Sport Rotors: 29lbs
Front 2pc Rotros: 18lbs
Front Non-Sport Rotors: NLA, haven't had a set to weight them.

HPS Pads have better stopping power then Ceramic, but Ceramic has less dust. I prefer the HPS because you get a better pad, w/ Less dust then Stock. Minimal or to No Warm-up Required on either pads.

Thanks for the info you two. Gonna go with the HPS then, and wait on the rotors for a little bit.
