So I'm driving a 99 2.8 QMS with stock calipers, stock rotors, and EBC Green pads all around. My front pads are getting old and the rotors are quite badly scored, so perhaps it's time to mod, ah, I mean, 'fix', my front brakes (gotta keep my terminology straight for the finance dept ;-)

Anyway, I'm not looking to spend too much on this, but I'd like a modest improvement in performance. So, I'm considering the following options (in order of increasing cost):

Option 1: "I'm kinda lame"
- New pads and 288mm PowerSlot rotors

Option 2: "Bigger is better"
- New pads, carriers, and plain 312mm rotors

Option 3: "It's only money"
- New pads, carriers, and PowerSlot 312mm rotors

So, which one would give me the 'biggest brake for the buck'? Any other options I should consider?

Thanks in advance for your opinions...

skip on the slotted rotors.

Mr. Mom

the last being the most important.


Improved pedal feel will be immediately noticed.

Further, stay away from drilled and slotted rotors.

Just did a complete fluid flush and bleed a couple of months ago, that definitely helped.

unless they're a part of a BBK :-)

Zimmerman rotors and Pagid Sport Blue pads. Significant performance increase for minimal $

Mr. Mom

Which fluid? This can make a big difference.
