Re: Upgrading to Vented Rotors Questions

["Jim Buck/BahnBurners!" <vwpride@mixi.net>]

Your car already has vented rotors.  There is no upgrade going on here.  If
you need to replace your rotors, the next upgrade I would suggest is a set
of ATE grooved rotors (not much more $ than stock), and a set of Ferodo
street pads.  That's a reasonably priced upgrade.
