Re: should i go with this?

There is two different things called "warping" by people. One is actual warping. This can be identified by the lateral forces generated. IE it hammers on the wheel left and right. The second is the uneven deposits/friction of the rotor. This can be identified by while pulling the wheel left and right, it is due to uneven friction between the sides, and there is no "hammering".

I don't have any experience with the SVX having issues with actual warping, and the ueven deposits can be prevented with some care in your driving. Googling can provide some tips by people who deal with brakes more than me.

With that said, crossdrilled is so 1990's. I'm more of a fan of slotted rotors for daily use as they don't weaken the rotor anywhere near as much and are quite good at keeping your pads from glazing.
