If the rotors are good quality, and they are still within spec to be turned, they should last a year before they may start warping again. I turned the rotors on the M a few times in the 3 years I owned them, mainly because they were slotted/drilled, and they looked too good for me to want to replace them. haha

that's not entirely true most newer cars have wot cutout switch. so it shuts of the ac while your wot. so when you get on it to merge on the freeway or whatever the reason may be you have full power when you need it

AC is def not a waste, unless you like sitting in a sweaty seat.

Haha I used to, when I had my dsm... which it worked but overheated the engine if I turned it on haha.

One day you will realize AC, heated seats, and other creature comforts are to die for. :)

And Rofl at sweaty vags. haha Man that sucks! What went out on the WRX and GLI?

I dont trust my hands to take off and put back on my intake manifold..if it were more simple than that I would have fixed it months ago.

Doesn't sweat = moist? What's wrong with moist?

Just get cooled seats, then you don't need AC as much.

That entirely depends on how you drive, and how badly they are warped. Even if they are in spec for thickness, one hard stop at highway speed could warp them the day after you get them turned.

Pretty sure I beat the M well daily. haha It all depends on the quality of the rotor. A napa special will warp faster than Brembo replacements.

Kracka 09-10-2009 04:14 PM

Re: Subaru for sale
 
Yup, there are huge differences in rotor quality. Not only do better quality rotors last longer, they also stop quicker too. The worst rotors I've found have been Autozone's. Napa's are supposed to be decent and I had good luck with Checker's. For a performance application though at least get Centric blanks (sold under a lot of different names such as RotorPro, Stoptech, Powerslot, etc.) or better.

A *LOT* of C5 Corvette guys run Raybestos rotors on their cars for track duty and daily use. Raybestos tends to have thicker rotors that prevent warping. The "downside" is that they hold more heat, but if you run good pads, holding heat is a good thing.

It is the brand Checker Auto Parts carrys/carried.

LOL at the tag!! yea I have brembo blanks in there..I am thinking it must be unevean wear from the pads..but I shall replace them before the snow flies...
